This is just one of 1,500+ pics taken while on a 3 week trip to Canada and Alaska.
Very hard to not take good pictures in these gardens!

I'm no photographer, but this one just took my breath away when it displayed on my computer screen for the first time!
I've tried sharpening etc, but the original seems best to me, beautiful soft colours, taken in early morning light, on my Fuji Finepix S9500 on auto, giving ISO 800, 1/250th, F3.7
Cheers
