A short walk through Hendricks Park

Having a few hours, I figured I'd drive up to Hendricks Park. From where I live (Springfield, OR) this is just 10 to 20 minutes away. I had packed a small lunch.

It's early Spring. Hendricks Park is maybe 25% of it's full potential for flowers but it's still a nice place to visit.

The best camera is the one you have with you. ;-) For me it's usually my iPhone 7 Plus. Most cameras on cell phones take a flat picture. Which means everything is in the picture is sharp. A DSLR camera (Digital single-lens reflex) can take pictures where the fore ground in sharp and the background looks blurred. This blur effect is called Bokeh. On the iPhone 6 Plus, 7 plus, 8 plus and iPhone X there are two cameras. The two cameras can create a digital Bokeh. These two flower pictures have that bokeh.
