family picnic at arboretum, pt. 2
























I'm mildly sorry for the flower photo overload. I had the best time in the botanic garden learning to use my wee Canon a little better. I'm obviously still learning and it's all good. I intend to master this lens before getting too carried away and wasting all my money. I've always been into photographing the flora and it was pretty interesting to see how many different kinds of plants the Arboretum has. We actually were tipped by my mum's neighbour who said this was one of the best times to go to the garden. I have no other time of year to use as reference, but I think she was right and it really was a beautiful little family picnic/outing:-) You can see yesterday's post of the first part of our picnic here.

Hope you are and will all have the most magical wee Christmas♥!

P.S. Don't forget to check out my wee giveaway.
