  • Great album Sharon. Thank you for visiting my "OKLAHOMA SPRING SNOW" album. With the wind blowing so hard, it's difficult to do a GOOD shot. And yes I was happy that it was gone the next day. The Tulip Tree actually has a professional name, but it's easier to remember the simple name. You have some really great albums, I ran through a few of them, but will be back later for a better view.

  • Hi Sharon & Bob, Well I guess we finally did it, along with Ron & Pam as well. It was a bit of an exodus this past week. I'm kind of disappointed that I couldn't seem to keep up. Anyway, thank you for stopping by my album recently. Once again you've put together a beautiful album of the gardens. I think you showed us a little bit different side of the gardens in several of your photos than I've seen before. Wonderful album as usual. Best wishes to you both & have a happy summer. I hope you get to have some fun adventures. Ray

  • Congrats Sharon, you have outdone yourself again!! Awesome album, I couldn't pick a favorite. They are having a flower photo contest at www.albumterrace.com. I'm sure you have several winners here! All my new stuff is posted there. It was started by Majed if you remember him. Best wishes, Barb

  • Hi Sharon and Bob...I cannot believe that I didn't sign the guestbook when I was here before. But it just gave me a chance to look through this beautiful album again. I love all your shots of the gorgeous flowers and the blossoms, the Japanese Garden, and all of it. These albums are always a favourite of mine to see. hugs and love, Barbara

  • Hi Sharon and Bob! Never is late; today I discovered your wonderful collection of albums. All of them are beautiful and it will take more time to me see all them in detail. As I see you are profesional in Nature photos. and I like it. My modest albums are more related with travel. Believeme, from now I will consider you as one of my favourites members of WS. CONGRATULATIONS Sharon for such a success and THANKS for share your best work. Regards, Manuel from Spain.

  • I love looking at your flower photos, so pretty. All your photos are pretty actually. I just added new photos to my flower album, they're vased flowers because there aren't too many in the gardens yet here in New England. Spring is playing tricks, spring-like one day, winter-like another few days, then summer like and so on. Ever hear of the phrase 'that's New England for ya'? or Crazy New England weather, it's so true!!

  • Hi Sharon! I just finished a wonderful trip through this album via the desktop, then came here to view some up close and comment on my favorites. This is a superb collection of the beauty you find with your camera, I love how you combined the shots of your own backyard with the MBG and the bird images are grand! Thanks for building such a super album for us to enjoy. Hugs, Susie

  • Hello Sharon! What a tantalizing array of colours you have in your album. I paused at every picture and let the beauty sink in; just like stopping to smell the roses. I am still quite intoxicated! It is, indeed, a beautiful gift for Spring. I have just returned from Namibia, where the landscape is quite different, to say the least. Thank you for sharing the lovely album. Take care. Best wishes, Suresh

  • Sharon, how could I have missed this album? Did you just make it? I just took the entire stroll through the gardens (via the slide show) & didn't even get tired!! Boy would I love to visit this place. You got some really awesome reflection photos. Guess the winds cooperated that day. Lots of beautiful flowers too. I especially liked the robins. I'll be making an album soon with photos I took at Washington Oaks Gardens. While this place is quite lovely it pales compared to Missouri Botanical Gardens. But we take what we can get! Hugs, Flo

  • As usual Sharon you have put together a delightfull album. I read about US having a cold snap but even so your plants are still in front of ours. This in spite of our very warm winter (compared to normal) & this month we have had sun nearly every day with temperature 6/8 degrees above the norm. My little phlox is just starting to open today, so it should, I got sunburnt down the beach yesterday! Eric
