Japanese Gardens

 Roaming 

Went to the Japanese Gardens in Herman Park today.  Got to remember to stay hydrated in this heat. The gardens open at 9 AM so I was there at 9 to beat the heat somewhat, but not the humidity. Object was to take images from no more than 18 inches off the ground.  Plus today I used my Lensbaby Trio 28 almost exclusive to add to my challenge.  Of course, being able to "tether" my camera to my iPhone I was able to stand and compose the image with having to stay bent over (back strain negligible).

I used the tripod and kept it collapsed.  using various speed and ISO.  remember the lens is a Lensbaby, 28mm, f/3.5 thus some perimeters are fixed.   Here are a few of the images from my outing.

Phil's little cousin Filette was with me
