Mercer Botanic Gardens - 07-05-2010, 08:33 PM


Recently traded my Pentax K200D (really handed down to 8 year old son) for a Nikon D90. I'm loving this camera so far. Here's a couple I shot today at Mercer. All shot with the Nikon 70-300mm VR.









Thanks for looking.

Very nice set of images, Wayne - I like the soft backgrounds you achieved on the last few images.
