Colors of spring

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I thought I'd share with you some of the colors of spring I found at the National Arboretum last week (I promise this is the last post on the subject!).Nothing says spring like tulips - all of the varied colors. Only one other thing at the arboretum matched the colors of the tulips in saturation. The koi!
Oranges and yellows, greys and blues -all of the colors of the rainbow in one little pond!

    I'm impressed with the fish picture. Sometime it's obvious where abstract art comes from.

    I remember being in Singapore and visiting the Zoo there. The koi were literally jumping on land to be fed! Amazing colours!
    And I love those flower pictures!

    Happy spring colours indeed!
    And a nice weekend for you, Stefan!

    These National Arboretum postings are great, especially when you pull the art out of the incidental, such as the patterns & colors in the pond.

    I love how the colour of the tulips are the same as the koi in the pond.

    I lived in Holland for a little spell, so tulips will always hold a special place in my heart.

    Stefan, I know that you love design, so I'm hoping you will stop by on Wed to check out this new series I am doing with several designer bloggers. I have been meaning to stop by and tell you about it. You don't have to publish this. It is just for you. :)
