March 4, botanical garden conservatory, part 2

.

I'm trying to get caught up on The Brain and Space, as I have a new class starting next week -- I can't remember the title, but it's psychology and genetics.....

And -- my better half is working from home, which means I don't have as much access to the computer that has the pics on it.  I suppose if we were going to continue this sort of swapping around of "who uses which computer" we'd be well advised to have a big drive hanging off the network, so I could get at my pics from anywhere.............  But we don't, at the moment.

So getting hundreds of images triaged and processed takes more days than I could wish.

Here are a few more botanical garden conservatory pics.

There's this round shallow planter, with two kaleidoscopes looking at it.  The planter part turns, so you can see different things through the kaleidoscopes.  They change out what is planted in this planter.  We've seen sedums, before, and something else before that.......

On the 4th, this is what the planter looked like -- vivid cyclamens, and grassy stuff.

Here are a few views of the planter above, taken through a kaleidoscope.

Isn't this cool?  I don't know who thought of it, or who made it, or who paid for it, but I'm grateful.

I wouldn't have guessed that a cheap little point-and-shoot camera could get images like this through a kaleidoscope.  Isn't it excellent that it can?
