Denver Botanical Gardens

Believe it or not, I had never been to the DBG on my life until this past weekend (short of my parents taking me when I was 3 and never remembering it). It was really cool that this huge patch of green exists mixed in with all the urban whatnots in Denver. In any case, I can now say that Caitlyn, 2 of 3 kids, and I have been there. Actually, the whole scenario is akin to Coloradans that rarely go boarding or skiing.

I had been talking to Caitlyn about scouting it out as a potential spot for location shoots, but logistically that would be hard to pull off. Many of the trails are beautiful, yes, but there are various handrails and path markers everywhere. It'd have to be a location that I shoot for someone by request, and not because I wanted to shoot there. That's a bummer since it IS such a beautiful location.

I'm not much of a flora and fauna photographer, but it was fun to mess around a bit. Anyway, here's 3 shots that I liked from the bunch I took.
