We spent a part of our morning yesterday visiting the Washington Park Arboretum. One of the gems of this place is the Japanese garden, which was quickly over-run with tourists like us, but beautiful nonetheless.
Because I didn't want people in the the photos I took, I went looking for interesting things that other people didn't find all that interesting - like this vibrant Japanese maple which hasn't yet turned red. Perfect.
As you might imagine, I could have spent the whole morning here, but we had other obligations.

Getting an interesting photo is often about being at the right place at the right time. Sometimes, as with this photo, it’s about getting to the right place at the right time.
I have to wonder if the person who mowed this lawn used GPS to get the lines so perfectly straight and perpendicular?
