    Default Arboretum Photos

    Took these at the Dallas Arboretum close to where I live. The weather was fantastic just after record rainfall in October. Used a Fujifilm S5200, all handheld, no flash. Maybe I will post a picture of a small house with stacked pumpkins for walls.

    Thanks Steve. The butterfly is everyone's favorite. I sent it along with others to friends for wallpaper. Here is the pumpkin house I talked about in original post.

    OK, I am stopping now. Just wanted to add a few more. Man, the dragonfly was a big one. The colors are all as is.

    Great photos. I like the floating pumpkins and the butterfly is gorgeous.

    Thanks for you reply and kind words. Thanks also to Sledger and Soquilli for help in making a DVD slideshow (too many pictures to share here). So off I go.
