Springtime in Napier - Cam Theme - 39


Springtime in Napier.

Nothing says springtime more than blossoms, so there will be a few of them in this theme.

I just happened to be on a road trip at this time of year to capture some of these images.
The actual city of Napier and Art deco style architecture will have to be for another time.

There are 11 photos in this "CAM" and one guest photo .

Monarch butterfly - I've always tried to capture one of these beauties but until these pics, never was able to get anything that wasn't blurred. So, since I couldn't decide which one I liked best, they're both here.

This was in the garden of The Greedy Gannet café

wild and crazy - Livingston daisies - quite a few photos of these were taken throughout the gardens on marine Parade.

Viewing them all together, this one stood out the most.
