Spent the morning at the Virgina State Arboretum near Paris, Virginia. This was the first shot (of 200+) that I took. Kinda' reached out and grabbed me as I was walking in from the parking area. Nice day for nature photos - overcast which eliminates shadows and high contrast areas plus it helps saturate the colors. More from the arboretum at - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/arboretum
