The Biltmore Gardens were quite beautiful. I didn't expect to see so much color in late October.

At the last minute, we found our solar filter which fit perfectly on my Tamron 150-600mm lens, and shot it with my Nikon D850 until 3:45 PM ...
Some of you may know my 91-year-old mother recently passed away. Being the passionate photographer that I am, I couldn't resist photographing the lovely flowers at her funeral luncheon in Pennsylvania. Unfortunately, I can't send you the scent as well. Mom loved purple, so there are more purple flowers than usual and purple always looks nice with a yellow background, its complimentary color.
The funeral was a lovely tribute to Mom, a sweet lady.
Friends said the blue reminded them of the ocean Mom loved, and purple orchids for the color Mom loved.
