When snow is heavy on the ground and the temperature is freezin, it's time to find indoor locations for your shoots. So we went to the greenhouses of the Botanical Garden in Copenhagen
A merry, diverse band of botanical enthusiasts spent a day in December seeking out the elusive and rare wiregrass gentian, which is native to only about six counties in the panhandle of Florida west of Tallahassee.

The National Botanic Gardens are located in Glasnevin, 5 km north-west of Dublin city centre. The 19.5 hectares are situated between Prospect Cemetery and the River Tolka where it forms part of that river's floodplain.
The gardens were founded in 1795 by the Dublin Society (later the Royal Dublin Society) and they have grown to hold 20,000 living plants and many millions of dried plant specimens. There are several architecturally notable greenhouses.
At the Denver Botanic Gardens, there is a glass-domed building about the size of a bowling alley. The glass dome extends down the sides and its framework gives it a honeycombed look. The glass allows all available sunlight to reach the flora inside.
Inside, a jungle. Even on an icy January day, heat and humidity in there stifles like a steam sauna. The unsuspecting visitor becomes engulfed in long, tall, climbing things with leaves big enough to choke a woolly mammoth. Ever see a woolly mammoth skeleton in the Amazon? You never will!
Just as in the jungle, there are quiet places in the building's deepest heart that, even on bright, sun-bleached days, are dark as moonless nights. It was in such a place that I saw these flowers reaching for the light, and I thought, "Reach, Little Flowers. Stretch and reach."
Taken during this years art in the garden at Sheffields Botanical Gardens. I received many compliments on my camera!
Photo taken in the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden. The "Garden in a Valley on the Ocean" is located off of the lush Hamakua Coast, north of Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Inside the Botanical Gardens, not as hugely interesting as I expected. The building itself was probably the most interesting bit!
Another of St. Louis' gems, located in an urban neighborhood accessible by public transportation and surrounded by beautiful old homes.
By contrast, the Chicago Botanic Garden is 30 miles north of Chicago in the upscale suburb of Glencoe, and is a substantial walk from either the nearest bus stop on Green Bay Road or the nearest Metra commuter train station.
