Some photos from the Phipps Conservatory

As promised, a bit later than I said... Maybe there will be more if I get around to editing them.

Great photos, thanks much for sharing. Love the passiflora and thistle, two of my favorite species.

That pillar of succulents is AWESOME.

Beautiful pics! I love their cacti/succulent room.

Beautiful plants, but what happened to the exposure halfway through?? Did you intend on making these so dark?

 

[Peatmoss]

Thanks people!

Paul, I assume you mean the photos of the orchids? That was because I switched to my macro lens, and prefer for my macros to be sharper.

It could also be an issue with my screen brightness, but that should not be a huge problem. Are they really dark? Or can you see the detail? They look fine to me, but I could have a higher screen brightness.

Great photos Peatmoss. I do agree with Paul though. The last 18 are a little dark.

Yep, those are the macros, I see what you are talking about now. That is my editing process and not my monitor that makes them look like that.

Sweet mother of Agave that thing is huge! Nice orchid selection.

What an awesome place! Thanks for taking the trouble to post these. It was worth waiting for.

Thanks, and no problem, it didn't take very long to edit these.
