Here are a selection of photos taken with my new Canon Rebel T3i, with 18-135mm lens:
 |
| Autumn's Emerging A beautiful, quiet day at Golden Gardens Park, despite the smoke in the air, from multiple, serious wildfires raging east of the mountains, in Washington... |
 |
| Breakwater Sunset Just after sunset, pier near the breakwater, at Golden Gardens Park. I visit here often, especially at this time of day... |
 |
| Canadian Geese in a Row I got quite a kick out of seeing these geese headed out into the Montlake Cut in a nearly perfect line. Taken from the shore at the Washington Park Arboretum... |
 |
| Canoe Silhouette This shot fascinates me. I think it is because I love photographing people in silhouette. They are anonymous, they could be anyone, that is the appeal for me... |
 |
| Delicate Freckles The light behind this orchid was so magical, it caught my eye from the other side of the greenhouse. I love seeing the veins, as well as the delicate freckles of this beauty... |
 |
| Duck Silhouettes I Here are two variations of this shot. In the first, their necks are tucked in. Taken in a quiet little corner of the Washington Park Arboretum |
 |
| Duck Silhouettes II Here is the same pair of ducks looking a little more awake and alert... Aware, no doubt, of the person standing a few feet away, amidst nettles and mosquitos, wielding a camera... |
 |
| Red Berries and Leaves Can anyone identify this plant for me? I love the emerging colors of Autumn, but I rarely know the names of the plants that I meet. I need a botanist to hang out with... |
 |
| Roots II I never pass this area without stopping to visit and stare at this amazing network of roots, all from one tree... |
 |
| Warm Wood Layers I was mesmerized by the beautiful warm hues and layers of bark on this tree at a botanic garden in Shoreline. Again, can anyone identify the name of this tree? |
 |
| Smoky Sunset As noted in the pictures near the top of this page, the smoke seen here is from a series of raging wildfires East of the mountains. There is, at least some small return, in beauty, for so much loss and devastation... |
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you enjoy these. I hope to have many more images to share
next week.
Blessings,
Linda
