The Marjory McNeely Conservatory in Como Park in St Paul is a favorite place to visit. Because we have to attend a memorial service next Friday, we took our FFT yesterday on Tuesday. We were surprised to see that all parking lots were filled with a steady steam of more autos looking for spaces. Guess spring break is still going on plus there seems to be more retired people visiting these days. We were anxious to see the spring flower show in The Sunken Garden and were not disappointed. The lilies, tulips, crocuses, and pansies were all color coordinated in shades of yellows and oranges. . .a feast for the eyes. Come back Friday when I will post some of the flowers I photographed.

What a beautiful structure, Kate!
ReplyDeleteI love buildings like this. When the page loaded, I thought I was looking at the Lalbagh Gardens in Bangalore, India.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a truly gorgeous building! I look forward to seeing what's inside.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful structure, the 1st photo is great, Kate !
ReplyDeletewhat gorgeous work of art
ReplyDeleteFantastic building!
ReplyDeleteThat's one awesome looking Glass House. I like the quote in your Header "I photograph to find out what something will look like photographed" That's so true as so often the camera's image looks so different to what the eye sees
