Visited the Japanese Gardens in Ft Worth
While my other half was working at the school, I took the chance to go to the Japanese Gardens. I had an 18-55mm, and a 70-300mm lens that I wanted for so long to take there coupled with a more professional quality camera body. The temperature started out on the slightly warm side to an incredible 100+ degree temp by the end of the trip. I turned the new camera loose in there and these are some of the results that I got for my sweat and trouble.
CRITTERS:
food?
Lovely coy. The main water features of the park were filled with healthy and well kept fish.

Most of the critters here were taken with the 70-300mm Nikkor AF. It's an older lens, but man does it get you in close.
I will post more of the other shots I took in another post tomorrow. These were taken on a Nikon D70 camera of yesteryear. Newer is not always better.
Awesome Work!
