A Day at the Dallas Arboretum

I find photographing relaxing, so here are some photos that I took at the Dallas Arboretum this past Saturday.

Love that place - my wife and I have been there with her parents, who live in Dallas. Last time we went I was really taken with the bamboo garden.

Great photos, my friend!

Very nice pictures! Now that's the way to post that kind of picture, without
someones arm with a Rolex on it stuck in the middle of the picture. Just a pet peeve of mine I guess but I hate to see vacation, day trip, holiday or whatever pictures "ruined" by having your arm with a watch stuck in the middle of what would otherwise be a great picture. We all know you have a Rolex, save the watch picture for an other time. These pictures are great, thans for sharing them.

The Dallas Arboretum is nice, but my all time favorite botanical garden would be Butchart Gardens in Victoria, British Columbia.

I like taking pictures of flowers and animals because they don't complain if the picture doesn't turn out well.

I understand you when you say U could relax when making

But such pictures only could be made when the men behind
relax ... In such a great surrounding nature we get the strength
for other days in week ...

Thank you for showing that pics.
