Arboretum Winter

Description

Foggy morning sunrise in the Univ. Kentucky / Lexington arboretum. This gazebo has been witness to numerous wedding vows, proposals and other assorted rendezvous. But I had the place pretty much to myself this day as not many venture around in the winter. HDR plus some layers to pop the color.

Exif: F Number: 11.3, ISO: 200, FocalLength: 17.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 40D

Only a photographer will get up early on a cold morning to get a shot, so you will have it pretty much to yourself. Great shooting here my friend super treatment #1341932

Such wonderful light and colors. What a neat place to see and read about, Randy. Love the vines atop of the brick gazebo. Looks like my hair in the morning. HA! (Well, maybe not. HeeHee)

Very unique and pretty!!!
