I work a few blocks from Temple Square in Salt Lake City, and I always enjoy taking a camera with me to work this time of year. All of these shots were taken on May 2nd around the Joseph Smith Building and the church office building. I saw a gardener there who told me that the tulips and spring flowers were going to be removed starting on the 5th. It’s time to plant all their summer flowers.

I think my favorite of all these is the one above with the backlight shining through the pink tulips. But it’s all quite beautiful. What a civic treasure we have in Temple Square!
