Didn’t bring a camera with me last Thursday on a visit to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, but when my son started taking photos with his iPhone, I realized I ought to be doing the same!
Below are a few iPhone 6 images we took at this wonderful place, which my daughter introduced me to a few years ago. The Brooklyn Botanic Garden is conveniently located close to where she lives, and is a real ‘must see’ if you are ever in Brooklyn!
Views of the Japanese Gardens
Views in and around the Conservatory
After the Garden, I headed to nearby Prospect Park’s Audubon Center – and was lucky enough to join a guided nature walk just setting out. Following an exceptionally cold and snowy NYC winter, we were blessed with gorgeous warm, sunny New York spring weather all day long! ☀️
I love Japanese gardens, the serenity and peace make me want to stay forever. I do love all those daffodils as well. They remind me of growing up on my grandfather’s estate in PA.

I do too, Donna. The one in Brooklyn is beautiful! We also have a very large Japanese garden here in Palm Beach County, Morikami Gardens. Very serene, very peaceful…

Beautiful pics, botanic gardens are wonderful places to visit and you never know what birds you might see there either, as you would have seen in my last blog. My niece lives in NY I will mention it to here when I next see her. Thanks for sharing!

So true. I hope your niece gets a chance to visit the Brooklyn botanic Garden. There is also a marvelous one in the Bronx, depending on where she is in New York.

You’re very kind, Lorri! Even without my ‘real’ camera, I’m so glad my son inspired me to also take pictures while I was there.
