On the same day that I paid a visit to the Chaudiere Falls earlier this month, I took these shots. Last year I'd noted a bed of tulips outside the War Museum, but too late to take shots. This year I returned, crossing from the falls along the path to this spot on the Ottawa side of the Ottawa River. The tulips were in lovely shape.
Out on the other side of the War Museum, tulips were found in a series of planters.
My walk took me further along, where I came to this bed, which had a flowing effect.
A short walk onward, I stopped outside the headquarters of Library and Archives Canada.
Beds of tulips are off to either side of the entrance. I framed the one in the background with this bench sculpture.
And a short walk beyond, on the property between Library and Archives and its neighbour, the Supreme Court, I took these shots. The Court is seen in the background of the first two.
Hi William, photos 6 to 9, and the last 3 are absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteThe tulips by the War Museum must have been a stunning and poignant sight, especially framed by the beauty of the river and the season.
ReplyDeleteTrue.

ReplyDeleteVery much so.
DeleteToo bad the tulip season is so short. We can only enjoy these flower for a week or two. Photos do last longer.
ReplyDeleteOnly a few days, but I can make them last quite awhile.
DeleteYou don't have to look very hard to find many tulips.
ReplyDeleteWe have many.
