I think it’s time to issue a challenge: Who can get us a picture of the original Monet’s Garden (you know, the one in France) using the ‘Impressionist Lens’ feature on our app?
Let’s use the hashtag #NYBGiverny. And if you manage this cross-continental feat, tweet us, post to our Facebook wall, tag us in Instagram, or photo reply to this post!
If we get more than one picture, we’ll throw together a post on our blog, and maybe if we get enough entries we’ll put together some kind of prize or something. I have no idea if this is going to work, but I’m sure hoping so! ~AR

Fast.Co.Design declares our app, NYBG in Bloom, “downright functional,” “so fun,” and ” a great, free download for the iOS that has plenty of Monet along with a few UI tricks that developers should check out.” 
Thanks Fast.Co!

No matter where you are, you can now enjoy Monet’s gardens with the Monet’s Garden free app tour, created by the New York Botanical Garden in collaboration with the Metropolitan Museum. The tour is part of the NYBG in Bloom app.

Discover beautiful photos and paintings, learn more about the connections between Monet’s art and his gardens, and if you’re feeling inspired, use the app’s “Impressionist Lens” feature to capture your own art.

Oh wow! Thanks NYC GOV! And let’s not forget, the technology for the app was Made in NY by Local Projects! ~AR

Two of our favorite things combined: The Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden at peak bloom, and the Impressionist Lens feature in our NYBG in Bloom app!
How’d we get that pic? We sent our digital media specialists 40-feet into the air in one of our bucket trucks! We’ll do anything for a great shot! ~AR
