Tulip Colours

A reminder to members of City Daily Photo that the theme for June is Sky.

 Today I have tulips from places here and there, starting with one not that far from Commissioners Park in Little Italy.


On another day, I passed by a church in the north end of the Glebe, where there were tulips in planters and in the ground.


Lansdowne Park has tulips lining the Aberdeen Pavilion.


A few streets to the north in the Glebe, I took these around residential front yards as I passed by.

Delightful

 More tulips from this first visit to Commissioners Park.


All of my visits to Commissioners Park this year ended in this south end of the park, with a collection of homes as the backdrops for the main beds.


What do dogs think of the tulips?


A final shot. Tomorrow we'll move to other areas, but we'll be back here in the park again.

Cheerful

 I continued on with my walk.


Another early morning dog walker.


Some standalone beds are in this southern portion of the park, and they tend to bloom early.

Flourish

 Continuing on with the beautiful tulips today. In the background of this first shot, the not so beautiful- a hideous infill house that is a blight on the neighbourhood.


The bed here goes along a low stone wall, with the road above pulling away to the east.


Over on Queen Elizabeth Drive, the traffic island includes a wealth of daffodils.


And across the way, I photographed this view of the lake itself. On the far side, the wooded parkland is the Arboretum.


This dog was being very patient with its human.


I finish today with this shot. I've always liked this house. Now it has the misfortune to have that aforementioned ugly infill across the street from it.
