Dazzling Shades Of A Festival

I left off yesterday with another view from here. The artist in that last shot was working at a new painting.


I continued on with my walk, taking more shots of the south end of the park. I will be back to Commissioners Park when I wrap up the series (and some tulips from here will feature in the theme day post), but I have other flowerbeds to come in the days ahead.

    Good that there are many people there to enjoy the tulips.

    Almost as many people as tulips! Well, not quite, but over the time they are blooming, perhaps! They seem to all be focused upon flowers! Glad you captured the artist, one using a much slower method to capture the beauty than the photographers. But he gets to add his own interpretation by merging things together that don't sit by each other in reality!

    We take it for granted after awhile, but all of the beds and colours are pretty special. It's amazing how many tulips there are.

    It seems to be a never ending flow. Are you sure it isn't a big circle of flowers ...? ;-)

    Gorgeous displays and I enjoyed seeing the artist also. I always like to peek at their work without being too intrusive. Great shots William.

    The most fun of the whole post is being told there simply is a giant band of tulips around the park. That is fun knowledge.
