Travel Theme: Green

Published by

on

To celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day and the arrival of spring Alisa’s weekly Travel Theme is all about the color green.  I love green and living in the Pacific Northwest gives me plenty of opportunities to photograph this beautiful color.  Today I chose three pictures that I think highlight the themes I like to talk about here on Northwest Frame of Mind; travel, life and gardening in my corner of the world.

This picture is from a fun day at The Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle.  The Butterfly House is beautiful and I love the patterns of the green leaves.

This next picture captures our first crab of the 2012 season caught from the fishing pier close to our house.

My last picture shows you one of the Hydrangeas in our backyard.  It was just a practice shot with my phone but I think the green leaves are pretty and they remind me of happy summer afternoons.

    My brother lives near Seattle, and I always enjoy visiting his area. His house is in a wooded area, and it’s always so green and fresh. I love going on walks there.
