Let’s try this again with the tree and the backlight…

I think the saturation, color and subject is a bit better…

It’s so difficult to get high tech stuff here. Typically, I have to find someone coming to Buenos Aires and trust them with transporting my stuff…

Star filter from the window

Then a trip to reserva Costanera…  yellow graduated filter on the sky

graduated neutral density filter on the sky

graduated blue filter on the sky ..  definitely fixes the blue in the sky

graduated green filter on the sky

graduated green filter on the ground

combination graduated blue filter on the sky and graduated green filter on the ground…  a perfect world…

graduated red filter on the sky …   life on mars???

combination graduated blue filter on the sky and graduated red filter on the ground…

combination graduated blue filter on the sky and graduated yellow filter on the ground…  Hmmm…  the artistic possibilities have changed…

The gardens Rosedal in Buenos Aires, Argentina

Filed under: Argentina, Buenos Aires, Photography, landscape, nature, pic-a-day — Capn Scott @ 7:58 pm

Happy New Year to all… Another Saturday that starts out with a call from Diego. Today we’re off to the Rosedal Gardens.

My sentiments… If you’re gonna scratch, make a face at the same time…

Very photogenic

The entire garden was comprised mainly of roses.

And almost surrounded by a very nice small lake with boat rentals and all the good stuff.

More roses

Many varieties

On the outside of one corner of the park was a very nice evergreen area.

This is a normal street in Palermo. Very nicely treed.

Definitely a nice area of town. Oh, by the way, I moved to Palermo a couple of weeks ago.
