The Bright Sail

Botanical gardens really aren’t the choice location I would be enticed to go — mostly due to the lack of interesting subjects to shoot. Yes, you can get some photos of the flowers and plants but they really aren’t the most exciting things — unless you are in some sort of tropical jungle down by Amazon where if you eat a lime off the trees you would get lesions all over your face.

Now that’s excitment.

Alas, I trekked out to Brooklyn Botanical Garden today with Kelly and it costed a whopping 16 bucks for two people to stroll its grounds. I didn’t know the breed leeches in their garden, but apparently so.

It turned out that the cherry trees were not in full bloom yet, but there were a few around. I would say about 50% of the cherry trees are in blossom at the time of this blog is composed.

Anyway, after spending about 2 hours walking around, this is the best photo I liked out of the bunch:

Interesting contrast, no?
