I could have taken flower pictures all day long in this beautiful park. But I was supposed to be taking family, not floral, portraits! So I just quickly shot a few sloppy yet splendid pictures of the flowers. The Cosmos didn't seem to mind my lack of attention to detail. ;-)

Floral Photography Tip: take pictures from the "ground's perspective". For these, *I* didn't get down on the ground (no time for perfection!); I just held my camera down there and shot "blind".
