Floriade Flower Festival 2008

Every year Canberra hosts a beautiful flower festival, which is open to public for free. A couple of weekends ago I drove to Canberra to visit this event, and to capture the vibrant beauty of the Spring flowers.

This year's theme is Australia's favorite movies. Each of the flower beds uses the natural flower colors and textures to paint an image or a symbol associated with a film. You can't really see the image if you are close to the flower bed, but if you imagine yourself hovering over the flower bed, it starts to come out.

I mainly focused on capturing the colors and flow of the flowers. I find them to be fascinating Nature's creations! As Designers, we can learn a lot from Nature.
