The signs of Spring are in the air. The flowers are blooming, the birds are singing, and the April showers are getting everything wet. The other day I went down to Brookside Gardens to witness first hand the arrival of Springtime. Brookside is fantastic location for photographers, painters and just about anyone looking to get out and enjoy the outdoors. There are three things that I love about Brookside: The gates are open sunrise to sunset(very important if you want to catch the early light), they have an incredible variety of plants, and best of all- it’s free to get in!
The tulips should be blooming in a few days, and if you’re in the Washington DC area it’s worth it to stop by and see all of the different kinds of tulips they have planted. All of the colors are amazing. With colors bursting everywhere it reminds me of a Fourth of July fireworks show. You may even find yourself walking the gardens oohing and aahing.
