Most importantly though, make sure you bring a camera to capture all of the dope flowers! Each year people take photos and videos of the beautiful flowers and make dope collages, short mini-vids, or even enter contests!

If you don’t have a professional camera or you’re not a veteran on landscape/nature photography you’ll still be good.
