Today I took the E-10 down the hike and bike trail around Town Lake, to Zilker and the Botanical Gardens. Man, that place is hard to take pictures of, at least the bits in the Japanese gardens. The problem is that you’ve got a really high dynamic range–white rocks sitting in the sun, right next to shady bits with hardly any light at all.Still, I got some pretty good pictures.
A lot of the pictures are of flowers. Flowers and bees. I feel kind of bad taking so many picture of flowers, because it’s kind of cheating–it’s hard to take an ugly picture of a flower, and pretty easy to take a good looking one. Still, my newer ones are better. And I like flowers a lot, so there.
There’s also some pictures of these hard core geese that tried to shake me down for my bread crumbs underneath a bridge. They honked and they hissed, but I held firm, and so my belly is full now, and they’re hungry.
I got a few pictures of the gardens itself, a dragonfly, and some random other stuff. More worth checking out than the last coupla sets, that’s for sure.
