A Day at the Botanical Garden by taffy

A Day at the Botanical Garden

Yes, it's clear that there is something wrong. The garden was gorgeous despite most of the summer flowers being pulled out. All was green, fountains were flowing, butterflies, ducks, geese, and bees were flitting about. But I was very attracted to the strong roofline of the main pavilion exhibit area.
Thank you for your funny comments on yesterday's post of the dogs and their people.
Note Junko's take is as non-garden (almost) as mine -- we both laughed when we realized what we had each chosen as our shot of the day: http://365project.org/jyokota/365/2016-09-15
I am heading to a photo course (with Junko - always more fun that way) for the next week followed by some work - but more than willing to work as it is all in Hawaii. Time for posting and commenting will be even more limited than it has been recently. Will look forward to seeing your work as Internet time permits.
So glad we went to the gardens and had such fun today! And hilarious that we both posted structural architectural lines and no flowers and fountains -- yet. Looking forward to next week!

Hawaii...again? Poor baby? Eat some papaya and wedges of ahi on the lanai and tell me life is good... I'll most definitely believe it! Tough assignment!

Love the sky and how the swirling wispy clouds make a good backdrop for the clean straight lines of the building.
