Carillon

One part sculture, one part musical instrument. The carillon, with it’s bells on display, evokes a late 70s architectural ideal in the Galleria Gardens.

Fearless Photogs

Yesterday was our first Silverpop photowalk. We did a lunch break photowalk through the Galleria Gardens. There were nine of us that got out with our cameras to socialize, teach, learn, and take lots and lots of pictures.

The eight of us that could make it for the group shot were (from left to right) Paige, Dan, Hans, Bob, Gail, Jennifer, Theju, and Des.

I can’t speak for everyone, but I had a blast. I can’t wait to do it again.

He is above the rules; they don’t apply to him. He wears his black bicker jacket and ignores the street signs. He rules by intimidation; like a turkey in a hen house.

These planters travel all day on the track above them in order to provide evenly distributed sun exposure on all sides. Taken on the Living with the Land attraction as Epcot.

Planters

The offset nature of this plant’s flowers with the green stamens rising out like the shoots of new plants gives the impression of a vertical planter.
