The Phoenix Botanical Gardens has and art show on display that consists of glass sculptures that are part of the landscape. I visited the Gardens yesterday and took a few test shots. I plan to go back next week and shoot later in the day and after they turn the lights on. If you are from this area or are visiting, I can highly recommend a visit.

    Hey Azzaro,

    You've got some nice captures of some really interesting glass works. #5 looks like it could be an original Chihuly piece. I met Dale Chihuly once at a large glass art exposition. His crew turns out the most dynamic glass art I've ever seen. Good work.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    These are fabulous; the second is my favorite! clap.gif

    I tried to get in there during spring break but it was booked!!! The most popular times of course were at sunset. I did not realize they were still showing his work. I'll give it another try!

    Are you entering these photos in the contest?
