For my independent excursion, I decided to visit the Missouri Botanical Garden and explore a place that I had never been to before. Needless to say, I absolutely loved it and will definitely be going back soon. This picture is from one of the indoor gardens where the flowers were in full bloom. I chose this picture for my blog because of how much detail there is in each flower. I loved seeing all of the colorful flowers after a long, cold winter.
This photo was taken inside of the same garden as the first photo. I really love the different colors that come together in this picture and the way the sunlight is shining on the flowers.
The outdoor portions of the garden were beautiful as well, and I can't wait to see what they will look like further into spring and summer. I included this photo in my post because it's not everyday that I can walk past a waterfall, especially as close as I was. It was nice to see so many different parts of nature up close and personal.
Walking through the garden was very relaxing and calming, especially on a day with 60 degree weather. I think this photo goes along with the relaxed feeling because everything is calm, and nothing is stirring in the water. As a college student, it was nice to get away from schoolwork for a while and enjoy the weather and free time.
Towards the end of my visit, I passed a few ducks that were swimming in one of the ponds. Luckily enough, one of them swam over to me for a few seconds, but then left quickly. It was almost like he was posing for me. Or maybe he left when he realized I wasn't going to feed him. Whatever the case was, I enjoyed seeing everyone, including animals, outside and enjoying the beautiful weather.
