After the storm.

We had a very nasty couple of days here in Toronto this past weekend. Lots of rain and damaging winds gusting to over 100 kmh. Monday dawned sunny and mild so I couldn't resist a long walk in Edwards Gardens now The Toronto Horticultural Gardens, just to enjoy what was left of autumn.
I used my Pentax K100D with its 18 t0 55 mm lens. It is the equivalent of 27 to 82.5 mm on a 35 mm camera. Neither wide enough nor long enough to suit me but one must make do with what one has.
I haven't posted for a while so I am making up for lost time.

Very nice Mickey. I like #3 and the last one best. Both look so peaceful. If you think that storm was ugly, wait'll you get the one going through here today. We're not getting the snow forecast for Sault. Ste. Marie and Toronto, but enough wind that a large fellow like me has a hard time walking into it.

Nice shots!
I like them all but something about # 5 makes me keep going back to it!

Nice ones Mickey! I particularly like #3 and the last one, of the benches. Something about that curve draws my eye in. Wish I'd taken that one!

We were lucky. Very little wind damage in our immediate area. A sizeable branch from the neighbour's small tree landed in my side yard, but it's an easy cleanup.

Hi Mickey

See you went for "cream" in No 4. Nice in this context. Like your cabbages - very effective. That's an impressive tree in No 5 - glad it survived.
