I am thankful for the difficult people in my life...
,,,they have shown me exactly who I don't want to be!
Larry and I went to the Philadelphia Flower Show this past Monday
The theme this year was "Explore America:", a tribute to the 100th year anniversary of the National Park Services.
As wonderful as the theme was, I did not find the exhibits this year at all inspiring.
The venue itself is tough to photograph in......very crowded, and the lighting is pretty challenging.. Trying to get a picture of an entire display is difficult. There is usually that one sweet spot to stand in to get just the right angle on things, and of course there iis always a line of people with their cameras standing in line waiting to take that exact shot.
I didn't see anything that made me want to fight the throngs!
So, when the inspiration doesn't come from the entire scene, it's time to get up close and personal with a few of the individual blooms.
Flowers are always inspiring!
Don't get me wrong. The show is always pretty, just seeing colorful flowers after a long winter makes it worth it, but we've been going for 19 years now, and some years are just better than others.
Of course, Larry and I always have a good time, no matter what!
