I don’t know why, but nearly everything I can see from a hotel window feels like it needs to be photographed.

zen: one leaf

It is sort of embarrassing to admit how little thought I’ve traditionally give to botanic gardens.

But a couple of things led us to this one. The first one was running into a friend at the airport who recommended a visit. And the second was seeing a series of gorgeous flower photos a friend of mine worked on this summer at several botanic gardens.

So: we went. It was already fall in Colorado and there was a light rain for a few hours.

My attempts at photographing flowers weren’t all that great, so here’s a leaf.

hummer

I’m not a person who photographs birds on the regular. I am, instead, a person who knows enough about a camera to make sure the correct focusing method is selected when there is a hummingbird flying around and who also knows to turn on continuous shooting mode.

That is all. Please carry on.
