Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden, January 28, 2007
I’ve always loved this photo. It captures many of the things I like best about the winter garden–blue skies, eye-catching bark, handsome evergreens, early bulbs pushing above the grass and, most importantly, bare branches etching a lacy pattern upon the earth as the sun sweeps across the sky.
I’m sorry to say I don’t remember the name of the sculpture or its maker, but I love the form of the spinning figure with outstretched arms and its placement among pirouetting crepe myrtles.

Shadows work magic in this photo.
That IS a beautiful scene, in so many ways. And your words are poetic — “bare branches etching a lacy pattern” — lovely!
