Visiting the Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, Florida

in #gardens • 5 years ago

My wife and I flew into Florida yesterday to see some friends and they took us to visit the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. It was a beautiful day, but the light was pretty harsh for photography, but I got a couple of shots that I like.

My favorite was a water garden with a Buddha statue and some colorful Koi fish swimming around.

I also liked the Banyan trees with their beautiful root systems.

Given the time of year, there were lots of trees and plants in bloom.

All photos were taken by me with my Sony A7ii camera.
