Flat Rock Park
Columbus Botanical Garden

I ended up not using some vacation days in early October. We have a “use it, or lose it” policy at work so now I’m sitting on two weeks of vacation time to fit in before the end of the year. It was time for a long weekend. I took Thursday and Friday off with no real plans other than to not be at work. Thursday was spent being way too lazy, so I decided to get out with the camera on Friday.

I had this vision in my head of the sunrise at Flat Rock Park. I wanted an image similar to the autumn view I captured last year (Autumn Bridge). We haven’t had much rain this fall and the creek was barely visible. My perfect view was non-existent.

Stop complaining! You have a whole park to explore. Get walking…

There were other opportunities for me. It was a good morning and I do have quite a few images to show you. For now I’ll share this view from the top of the rock formation in the middle of the park. I’m unsure what this would have been used for, but it did capture my eye.

Have I mentioned that I am a member of the Columbus Botanical Garden? Stop me if you’ve heard this before… 🙂

I thoroughly enjoy being able to go to the garden for pics. It isn’t the biggest garden but they always have something for me to photograph. I think I surprised the gate attendant. The garden is in the middle of preparing for their Shine event which runs from the end of November until Christmas. There were a lot of workers busy replanting. I was still able to find subjects for my macro lens.
