A botanical enigma..



Do you prefer a soft and pretty or hard and spiky kind of garden, or a combination of both? Walking through the Supreme Court Gardens at the weekend it was interesting to see the many varieties of plants growing there, something for every taste. Superimposing the soft over prickly above to create a botanical enigma :)


There is even a mini walk trail through the combination of hard and soft.. if it weren't for the glimpse through the ferns of traffic lights, buses and cars on Barrack Street, one of Perth's busiest streets, with a lot bit of imagination you could be on a tropical island.. kidding :) Wishing you a green and serene Wednesday, take care and stay safe..

  2. Very beautiful. I love the big old gardens here in the USA. The kind I could never afford to have, but I can visit.

  3. Enigma is the right word and your work is a perfect example. But as I recall, you don't use Photoshop so whatever photo program you use, keep on keeping on! Of course, you might drive someone like me crazy trying to figure out what's what in the combined compositions! I'm already enigma challenged! 🤪

  14. It does have a tropical jungle kind of feel to it. I love it when these little spots can be found in a very busy city.
