Azaleas Among the Trees ○ 2014 Patty Hankins

I’ve recently added a new photo – Azaleas Among the Trees – to my BeautifulFlowerPictures.com website.

Every spring I try to visit the Azalea Garden at Brighton Dam in Brookville, Maryland. It’s one of the true hidden treasures in the Washington, DC area. The garden, established by the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, has over 20,000 azalea bushes that bloom in early May. It’s the only place in the DC area I’ve found where I can wander among full-grown trees and azalea bushes taller than I am, turn a corner and see wonderful scenes like the one I captured in this photo. This was one of my photos from May of 2014 when I had the garden to myself the morning I went out to photograph there on a weekday morning.

This photograph is available as a matted photo. You can order Azaleas Among the Trees from my website.
