Great textures :) What kind of tree has the green bark?
We never know what you will find when visiting the St Louis Botanical Garden! These pictures are such a wonderful snapshot of the beauty of this garden!
I love the bark! How did you get it to pop out of the picture? (A rhetorical question...to express how fantastic I think it is.) Your "texture" series has captivated me!
Gorgeous! I think you should give up your day job.
Very observant eye behind the camera.
I LOVE this slideshow!
You have a way of shooting the most rare things. And I simply love it.
Nice perspective :-)
Beautiful photos, Mike! We are still mostly "summer green" here in coastal Maine.
