Baroque Dreams
June 27, 2008
The Baroque Garden next to IMMA (Irish Museum of Modern Art) was renovated and replanted to a high standard.
The atmosphere is not unlike that found in the film
“Last Year in Marienbad”
(L’Année Dernière à Marienbad)
which was directed by Alain Resnais.
A Baroque effect relies on tight control in both planting
and maintenance.
It repays the effort.

“White roses and red roses: those were beautiful colours to think of. And the cards for first place and second place and third place were beautiful colours too: pink and cream and lavender. Lavender and cream and pink roses were beautiful to think of. Perhaps a wild rose might be like those colours and he remembered the song about the wild rose blossoms on the little green place. But you could not have a green rose. But perhaps somewhere in the world you could.”

I started using my new digital camera in Winter.
The startling light of Late Spring has brought some
changes.
These photos were taken indoors in very low light levels.
Just remembering…
