United States Botanic Gardens

Last month my little brother came for his first visit to DC. One of the first places we went, and to which he subsequently returned twice more, was the US Botanic Gardens so he could practice with his new 60mm lens.

Moment of jealousy that I don't have a 60mm lens.

I had to settle for using my 35mm but, thanks to some great Photoshop effects, I ended up with some pleasing shots I wanted to share.

  2. Thank you! Glad you like the pictures. The last picture is an orchid, the Phalaenopsis hybrid I think.
