Santa Barbara Botanic Garden - Featured 5-13-05

Hi Lynn, Another fantastic album. You are soooo good. I want to thank you also for the last info. you gave us. We had never done the Salt Lk. area and were so happy to discover some place new. Altho the flowers weren't as heavy as when you shot there, it was good enough for us. We stumbled on a dirt rd. that was full of purple, and hundreds of sheep in an arroyo. Never did find Shell Cyn tho, but the area with all those beautiful oaks were so great to see. If you get the chance, and haven't already, go to Capistrano. The Mission is in full bloom and simply gorgeous. We were a couple of weeks early for the cactus but a few were starting and should be all out now. I look forward to seeing yours. "HAPPY SHOOTING" Jan

I forgot, your # 122 has a perfect little face on one of the upper flowers. On the Ellen De Generes show she is asking people to send in pic's with faces who look like someone, which she then shows. That one would be perfect. Please do it. Jan

Yes, being on the road viewing this great planet and the beauty around us does have a way of healing....if you guys ever get up to this neck of the woods, please let me know. You're welcome to use my home as base camp and take pictures to your hearts content. I'm 45 minutes south of Jackson Hole and an hour from the Teton's....bout 2 and a half from Yellowstone. my e-address is greenhorngrl@silverstar.c om Your photo's are gorgeous. Lorrie

What a treat to view your photos - I've lived in Ventura for 23 years and never knew I was missing such beauty. Thanks to you I am on my way to the SB Botanic Garden tomorrow - now if I can take just 1 photo as lovely as yours I will be delighted. Thanks and keep your shutter finger busy- Cindy

Thanks for sharing with us my friend...take care...lots of hugs...Darlene

Dear Lynn, a real delight your album! Though a corner of a Botanical Garden it looks so natural, not at all "arranged&qu ot;.

Lynn!!! I am was so happy to see you featured today!! I've been meaning to respond to your note in my album a week or two ago. I've been SO busy at work - don't have time to do anything, combined with the fact my daughter (dicey_pastiche in webshots) is getting married July 16 in S.B. (at Godric Grove - ever been there?) So any spare time I have has been spent planning that! I am jealous to see so many beautiful pictures of yours - you are without a doubt my favorite Webshots photographer!! I live vicariously through your photographs! Don't stop, okay?? Lynn

Hi Lynn! Congratulations on having these wonderful flower images chosen for today's feature. Santa Barbara Botanic Garden in full bloom is a photographer's paradise and an awesome display of colour. Now it has been viewed world-wide today and I wonder how many people in other parts of the world are wondering what the names of these flowers are. I recognised the Californian Poppy, the Lupine and the Galardia, but would like to know the names of many others. Enjoy your special day in the spotlight.. Gladys, Western Australia.
