The National Botanic Gardens of Wales


Whilst we're editing some current shoots from this summer, we'll dip back on this sunny Bank Holiday Weekend to a prior Bank Hol, and a trip to the National Botanic Gardens of Wales earlier in the year.


We were very impressed with this place; Amy had been not long after it opened, as a child, and this was the first chance for a return visit.



The indoor area, under the glass roof, was very impressive indeed, and nicely atmospheric.




There were plenty of opportunities for Amy to get more shots as a basis for her "Flowers (Abstract)" series, which is seeing a renewal of interest for exhibitions at the moment.






Just as nice were the variety of nation-specific areas in the surrounding parkland, particularly the Japanese-themed garden.






All in all, a very nice place to visit, and somewhere we'd love to return to in the future.


A cheeky bonus too at the end; a rather nice Birds of Prey Centre was in the grounds, so here's a rather characterful bird that was enjoying striking some poses for us.
