Flowers of Seoul

One Monday in Seoul, we decided to go visit the National Museum of Korea. That was a horrible move on my part since when we arrived after taking the bus and a couple of subway trains we found the museum closed on Mondays. Well, I saw a sign that said that the Family park was a fair walk away. Once again I messed up. I confused it with the Children's Park which is a great place to visit unlike the Family Park. We then dragged ourselves back to the subway wanting the day to get better. We saw signs everywhere pointing to this new venue, so we rode the subway excited about being able to see something in Seoul we have not seen. That was strike three. With all of the advertising, one would not expect the place to be under construction and not even open yet...

I did however get a photograph of the flowers in front of the museum. The grey and rainy skies did provide some nice blooms.

Fan Palm and Pink Plumerias

These images were taken in the Waikiki area of Honolulu on the Island of Oahu. I love the beautiful foliage here in Hawaii. My wife says that I take too many photographs of flowers. Oh well, after taking some bikini photos and bragging to her that I stopped taking flower pictures, she agreed that flowers make a great subject. :-)

Foliage of Hawaii

The great weather of Hawaii allows plants to flourish here. These are examples of the plants here.

This blueish flower with a yellow center grows in front of the condo building here in Honolulu, Hawaii. I just love the small details in these intricate flowers.

White Flower

This photograph was taken during the month of April in South Korea. Spring is a beautiful time in Korea with all of the flowers blooming and the time nature comes to life once again.

Rooftop Plant

Here is another plant from the rooftop garden. Not bad for 24 stories high!

White Bougainvillea

Our condo in Honolulu has a rooftop garden. This is a bougainvillea plant in that garden.

This is a photograph of a monkey pod tree. While on the Big Island of Hawai'i, there is a monkey pod that is said to have been planted by the famous author Mark Twain. The flower on the monkey pods are a brilliant reddish orange.
