Lurie Garden Chicago - January

The ice skating rink in Millenium Park.


A few pictures of before the cut back at the Lurie garden. The sun was shining and the air was fairly still. With temperatures in the mid thirties, it was a great day to be outside.

Veronicastrum stands tall and dark against buff colored grass and blue sky,

with sunlight seeming to shine forth from the grass creating shadowy contrast in darker stands.

Light plate from the boardwalk.

Look at the sun behind this Little blue stem (Schizachyrium scoparium) , so pretty.

The meadow in the Light plate.

When ever a breeze would blow the grass would lift and sway.


Dots.


The Dark Plate. Epimedium and a few ferns, undaunted by the winter so far.

Light playing in the Light Plate.
