Atlanta Botanical Gardens
Emily and I spend a special “daddy-daughter day” at the Botanical Gardens on Saturday . I guess this was soon-to-be-born baby Sydney’s first photo outing, too!
It was the perfect start to a Memorial Day weekend. Other than harsh, full sun limiting our potential photographic subjects, the weather was absolutely perfect! We spent about 4 hours walking around enjoying nature and macro photography. I tried my best not to wear our little mom out with too much walking. The relaxing pace was, well, …. relaxing.
I enjoyed taking these images, particularly the irises. I grew up with purple irises in our backyard, so these triggered great memories of home, my parents, and my childhood.

Very nice – great job!! Love the richness of colors and amount of detail. Love the depth of field too – great job on the stacking.
Looks like the new camera system is a keeper!!
The first one is my favorite. Stunning!
