For our photo rally, we juxtaposed some of the natural floral beauty of UBC with scenes of human interaction. Flowers are with us at all times during our lives and serve to accentuate times of great joy, sadness or any mood in between. Some are more highly prized than others, but any flower can perform its primordial duty of adding beauty to the world. We see flowers at graduations, memorials, weddings and other momentous occasions. Even the image of a flower on a dress is enough to brighten up an otherwise dreary day. Though we initially started our journey looking for examples of beautiful flora, we quickly noticed the myriad of ways that flowers could be and were being used functionally on campus. And if they were only decorative, we found fun ways to incorporate both ourselves and the flowers in amusing ways. The pictures you see aren’t in any particular order, but neither was our search. The most important aspect of the project for us was to have a swell time.
