Shadow Shot Sunday

Thanks to Tracy over at Hey Harriet for hosting us, you can visit her over at Shadow Shot Sunday: http://heyharriet.blogspot.com/

Yesterday we travelled to Hamilton City, an hours drive from our home,  my MIL is spending a week with her sister, who is recently widowed and lives in Hamilton.  I have been wanting to visit the Hamilton Gardens for months and yesterday was an opportunity not to be missed. The gardens are amazing, even in early Spring, these are just a few of the pics taken from the themed gardens. You can visit Hamilton Gardens on the link below :

It was nice to have some sunshine for awhile so that I could get some shadow shots.

The buds starting to form on what looks like a Wisteria vine. This was taken in the Renaissance Room at the gardens, the photo below shows what the bottom area of the garden looks like from the terrace where this photos was taken.

And then looking up from this area up to the terrace.The Renaissance garden holds special memories for our family as this is where Evette and Jared had their wedding photos taken in 2001.
