Stop the Car

That is what Melody told me to do when she spotted these flowers. I had pulled into the parking lot of the Space Science Centre to go and take a few pictures. On the way out she saw these and wanted me to take a few pictures. They really were beautiful and definitely made a nice picture.
By the way the building in the background is the new Space Science Centre. Many of you saw the old Planetarium I posted a couple of days ago and now you have seen the new building which houses much more than just a planetarium

I love mass planting in flower beds bkb, like the colour.
There should be more of this in city and towns.

The new building looks like a space ship. Lovely flowers. Melody did well to tell you to take this shot

They're definitely car-stopping flowers. Like the space age shape at the back.

@mrssmith203 Well I have to say that I really appreciate having someone like her who is very patient with me and my project. That does not sound like proper English.. Interesting that I would think about that while writing to an English teacher. :)
