Walkway


WALKWAY, CHICAGO BOTANIC GARDEN, GLENCOE, ILLINOIS, APRIL 17, 2009

Pentax K10D
SMC Pentax-F* 300mm f4.5 ED (IF)
1/750 sec. f11
ISO 400

I happened to be panning with the long lens hoping to pick up a bird in flight when this view of a walkway across a lily pond appeared in the finder. The extreme foreshortening of 300mm, in my opinion, gives the unusual lines, angles and textures some added interest.

Beautiful! Your pictures make me so homesick for Chicago's north side and the Botanic Garden in Glencoe.
