Sacramento Roses

I take a lot of pictures.

I take pictures of different things for different reasons. If you flip through things here on WLTSTF you will have seen pictures of raccoon, airplanes, dogs, cats, the sky, clouds, and I’ve mentioned the couple of years that I did a “Picture-A-Day” posted to Facebook.

I take a lot of pictures. Especially when I’m visiting someplace new.

You don’t even want to think about travelling with me unless you want to be patient while I take pictures of everything. Ask my son about the fall trip to Ohio when he swears I was trying to take a picture of every single freakin’ red & gold leaf on every single freakin’ tree in the state. Ask my Pepperdine classmates how many pictures I took on our EMBA trip to Prague and Brussels. Ask my kids how many pictures I took on my “3 Weeks, 3 Kids, 3 Countries” tour last year.

I take a lot of pictures. I’m sure you’ll be seeing a lot more of them here.

One thing that I like to take pictures of (aside from critters, pets, family, airplanes, stars, and clouds) are flowers. They’re pretty, they’re bright, they’re infinitely variable, and they’re easy to take decent pictures of.

These are from the International World Peace Rose Garden at the east end of Capitol Park in Sacramento. It’s lovely, you should wander through for a while if you’re in the area.

Sorry, I can’t tell you what type of roses any of them are. I’m not an expert and I didn’t take notes. I just had a few minutes to wander, I had my camera, and I took pictures of a bunch of those that I thought were really pretty.

I take a lot of pictures.
