Sunday, Bea picked me up with Raul, Lupe and Belen. We went to the Botanic Garden - it was cloudy and on - off rain - but nothing's perfect. First we saw the vegetable bazaar
The sign introducing the see exchange
The sort of market
Then there was this amazing green cauliflower with spiral projections
Inside was a seed exchange for aspiring gardeners
Bea discussing seeds
Inside the garden - pools with nice reflections
Then an amazing structure with a sculpture and reflections
The sculpture
Then I got the bright idea to switch to my new Tamron 60 mm F/2.0 lens and take shallow depth of field images - here is an orange something
THen the greenhouse sculpture
Looking at the end
Another view
Bea and Raul's kids were fantastic - and just plain fun - Lupe and Belen
