A walk in the garden

I arrived in Houston to meet with a friend a bit early. I planned on spending the morning in the museums, but they don't open until noon on Sunday. So I decided to head to nearby Hermann Park to the famous rose garden there.

As an experiment, I put on my Nikon 14-24mm 2.8 lens to try some new things out... It's not my usual stuff, but I'm happy with the results.

I did a bunch more - but only made one public... you can see the rest in large size on my blog right here: stuckincustoms.com/2009/01/02/a-walk-in-the-garden/

I really like the photo of the red rose - the 2nd of the private images. Also, great job updating your HDR tutorial and your blog. That tutorial practically got me started in photography last Spring, so thanks. :-)

Not exactly your trademark but it is a nice shot. The contrast and details in large are excellent with your new camera.
