Garden in Tyler

Gallery: FloraPosted April 11, 20181,204 views8 comments

If you are ever near Tyler Texas near the end of March, you need to drive around the city following the Azalea signs. Many of the homes and gardens are spectacular. This garden, at the home of Mr and Mrs Pyron is open to the public. It is one of the most beautiful gardens I have seen anywhere.

A real work of love! A beautiful garden, landscaped and arranged. Nice! Well photographed, but a bit soft. A visit back and a couple of images to combine for near and far at f/16 or f/14 might give you a sharper overall picture.

This is so inviting Skip. I just want to go sit and enjoy it for a few hours. Beautiful colors and really nice composition here too.

Skip: I've been to Tyler in the spring and this is a classic scene superbly rendered. 2 thumbs up. >=))>

Nice one Skip! I wonder if cropping out the sky in the top of the shot would bring even more attention to all the wonderful elements in the lower 3/4.

Skip I missed this beautiful photo, a hymn to flowers and gardens. An award very well deserved.

Gorgeous garden. Your perspective is perfect to capture the azaleas plus the whole cherry (?) tree.
The stone bridge is great.
Not sure about the kind-of odd blue clouds at the top - if mine, I'd experiment with dropping out the blue/cyan channel in that area.
Congrats on the (double) EP - beautiful image!
