November 30, 2009 - &quot;A Texas Japanese Garden Autumn&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This was shot yesterday at the Japanese Garden, Fort Worth Botanic Gardens.  The sky was a very heavy dark gray overcast.  Any sky included in a shot was completely blah.  A different shot that I was considering for todays post has Dakota Cowboy fog added for the dreary day.  It and another alternate can viewed at&lt;br /&gt;

Unfortunately I could not use a tripod as tripods are only allowed in the gardens for a $75 fee (considered commercial photography).  However, the Japanese Maples were a beautiful color to enjoy.&lt;br /&gt;
