No not that one...



This one!



I wouldn't drive it.



I wanted to roll this on the floors, but have to behave.



Australiania, and umm.




And outside.



Fountain always steals the show.




Well those are the hightlights, and l did take more shots of flowers this year.

A bit of a rush getting there and thankfully the rain held off, and $11 for two takeaway coffee's is a bit too much, but hay once a year.

My Mother enjoyed it, which was the most important thing.

    Anyone would find that beautiful - I bet that smells delicious when you walk inside.

        Every year we get this Why am I always underwhelmed? Perhaps it's because I come from the UK and have seen much more vibrant, creative and colorful displays. I think it also has something to do with the weather. The plants over their don't not seem to have the richness in color diversity you can get elsewhere. Still, thanks for posting the pics.

          Well, obviously. You work with what you've got.

          No doubt Shane would be equally underwhelmed at the Liverpool International Marsupial Show.

            "the red-necked wallaby has been introduced to parts of Great Britain. Feral populations breed on the island of Inchconnachan on Loch Lomond in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, and on the Isle of Man"

            Disturbing. That explains the sharp increase in pickup trucks in these area's, not to mention barbecues.

      Yes it does Kay, when you get close enough to the display.

    Mark is probably referring to the Chelsea Flower Show.

    https://www.rhs.org.uk/gardens/harlow-carr

    Which is bigger than ours, with a few has been celebrates showing up, hoping that walking around and pointing a lot will resurrect their fortunes, but in all honesty the only reason some of their images are more vibrant is they use a 24 megapixel $3000 camera with a decent lenze and Photoshop it to death afterwards, (push the color).

    I used a cheap barely smart phone and only sharpened the images with some contrast and highlight, since l was on a clock and didn't have the luxury to spend hours waiting for the sun to come out, (Chelsea probably be waiting a fortnight).

    Server has crashed but the images look just as good from what l saw yesterday!

    Nice, I love those images. I am also going over there with my friends on 2nd April and after seeing your pictures, I am more curious now. Right now, I am arranging money for this event and I already found https://casinosanalyzer.com/online-c...luckcasino.com website through which I will find Crazy Luck Casino login sites reviews through which I am gonna make money and when I have enough money I will visit this event.
