    A Visit to the Gardens

    I haven't posted any shots for quite a while due to a lack of inspiration. Anyway here are a couple from our local botanic gardens. The stone sculpture was crying out for Black and White, I thought, due to it's shapes and textures. The second one is a tropical dome, especially for you Northern hemisphere people. Enjoy, or should I say "suffer in your snowflakes"

    Comments welcome

    It's 19 C. right now just after sunset! Forecast for the rest of the week indicates highs from 22 C. to 26 C.

    Ah but the humidity Dave, we have to suffer the humidity.
    I like the sculpture in B&W.

    That sounds quite pleasant Richard. I'll bet it's not like that further north !

    I like #1 too...I suffer from lack of inspiration too from time to time (like right now...) despite my new camera but I am forcing myself to take pictures every now and then. We in the Northern Hemisphere might be suffering from the cold but sometimes it is nice out there in my deck -- fresher air.
