When the flowers (Hyacinthoides hispanica) are at their peak, the Bluebell Wood at Brooklyn Botanic Garden looks magical, like something out of Tolkien. The tree in the right foreground is a chestnut-leaved oak (Quercus castaneifolia).

I took this photo in late May.

A graphic designer by profession, I've branched out (no pun intended) into photography, specifically nature photography. Photographing flowers is a valuable exercise in color and composition. I find gardens, intersections of nature and the built environment, to be particularly interesting; the way we shape nature to our ends says a lot about our culture and ourselves. Then there's the joy of capturing the ephemeral brilliance of a bloom at its peak. I hope you find as much peace and beauty in these shots as I did in creating them.
