Garden at Twilight


One beautiful evening I was out watering the plants and just had to take pics. Inspired by Lara Lewis and her garden adventures, I wanted to share them with you. And, as I don't really have any readers, this post is really just for a select few of you in mind (you know who you are! lol) Any way, it was a gorgeous evening, the air was heavy with the scent of roses, sun was setting... so amazing. I highly recommend viewing the pictures up close, because, maybe I'm biased, and I think they're pretty up close lol. So much is missed in the crappy low-res views here.









These roses were sooo crazy bright in the direct sunlight. Almost too bright to look at, especially mixed in with the red snapdragons.





This is the first year our snapdragons have REALLY taken off. They're so beautiful, but hard to photograph in the bright sun. I loved the shadows they cast behind them though.








I have nooo idea what the little blue/purple flowers are (above), but they're really cool in person, especially mixed in with the bright green leaves.



Wave petunias, sweet potatoe vine, snapdragons, unknown blue/purple flowers, and mums all mixed in.

And finally, last pic of the day, just before the sun set. Wish this photo turned out better.
