Europe
“Every backyard, every park and every field is a continent to explore.”
UNFORESEEN MAGIC – (Int'l Photography Awards Official Selection) In May, Pruhonice Park, the botanical gardens twenty miles outside of Prague would be bursting with Cherry blossoms and Rhododendrons, but this was January. I'd hoped giant snowflakes would blanket the UNESCO World Heritage Site, however, a one-degree shift in temperature turned the snow into rain. But with the teeter-tottering of temperatures arose an unforeseen magic. A mist began to permeate the voids between the Norway Spruce and the Redwoods. A ghostly fog unfurled across the park as the landscape transformed its awkward dreariness into a display worthy of a beauty pageant crown.
