For the second year the garden wraps itself in lights and sells admission for the winter holiday season. It is lovely and well worth seeing. For context this is a distant shot looking from the entrance to the city beyond: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DoryG/PAW2012A/December+30/Context.jpg.html Some of my snarky attitude comes from the attendees who would frequently pay more attention to the image on their Iphone instead of the to the lights: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DoryG/PAW2012A/December+30/Lights_.jpg.html It also seems that we can not enjoy the beauty of something without anamorphing it with human figures: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DoryG/PAW2012A/December+30/Fairy+of+the+Lights.jpg.html Okay, last snarky comment: you are in an incredibly beautiful crafted environment and you have to make S'Mores? Really? http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DoryG/PAW2012A/December+30/S_Mores.jpg.html If you are in Atlanta during the late December to the early January period the gardens are quite lovely, do stop by. -- Don don.dory at gmail.com
