Had a great time @gettymuseum today photographing in the gardens. Forgot that since it was Friday, the place would be packed with kids on field trips. So fun hearing their excitement at seeing a lizard, or hummingbirds or even just a bee. Remember that youthful wonder and enthusiasm as you enjoy the weekend ahead! . . . . . #lensbabysweet50 #lensbabysweet #seeinanewway #discover #gettyinspired #gettycenter #thegetty #fieldtrip #flowerporn #flowersofinstagram #selectivefocus #flowerstalking #moody_nature #nikonphotography #Nikon #browngirlbloggers #blackgirlswhoblog #labloggers #lablogger #socal #lalife #lifeinla #flowersandmacro #spring #springphotography #365kc #lensbaby
