Howdy All,

Another one from the Outing at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens in which the Japanese Gardens are located.

Such a wonderful tranquil area, so hard to believe it's in the middle of the bustling City.

    Hi Craig,

    You have a great one here. The different tonalities between the various types of flora really stand out. Very nicely done, my friend.

    Take care,

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

    I always enjoy your work. It's been over 30 years since I've been there. Looks like I need to plan a trip there.

    Hi Craig
    You've really got a winner here. As Tom said the different tones in the flora cause the eye to pause and enjoy each one rather than simply take in the whole and move on.

    Be Well

    Howdy Randy,

    Oh My, with your wonderful eye and technique, you'd love it there. They do restrict the shooters by not allowing tripods, but if you are a member of the FWCC you can not only use Tripods, but get in free:D We used to be members but wandered down a different path:D I'd say for the 3.00 admission fee it's one of the best bargins in Town, also they have the Spring and Winter Festivals there, and the place even shines more. The Fall Foliage of the Red Maples makes the place look like it's on Fire, so no more excuses!!!
    Take care,

    Howdy Anthony,

    Thank you very much, it's just such a beautiful place to see and shoot, so much for the eye and senses to take in.

    Seems like everytime we go, we always say why did we wait so long:D

    Howdy John,

    Thank you very much. There was just so many different type of Plants, Shrubs, and Trees, along with the beautiful water features. Like I wrote Randy, for 3 bucks, what a bargain:D:D:D

    Have A Great Weekend!!
    Take care,

    Howdy Kevin,

    You'll love it there, especially if you come in during the Fall Festival and the beautiful Maples are in full color.

    Thanks much for the Kind reply.
