The flowers at the waterlily garden are pretty. But what I like the best is the dark and reflective water in the ponds. It’s moving all the time, creating ever-changing abstracts on the surface.

And don’t tell ANYONE because I am not a member of Team Tripod, but I sort of wish I’d had a one with me, along with some ND filters, to get some longer exposures. But you do not hear that from me.
