Default Two reflections and two inside views

Hubby and I went for a walk around the Hamilton Gardens yesterday, it was our first visit for the upcoming summer season. There wasn't alot of flowers to see (another month or two) but there was still plenty of interesting things to take photos of.

I had to get down low to take this one. The reflection was taken through a water fountain feature that wasn't working at the time.

Reflection

I like the near perfect round reflection of this one.

Bridge reflection

I took this one through a doorway which created a nice entrance into the centre of the shot.

Inside view

And again the archway provided a nice frame.

Water fountain

Thanks for looking.

These are beautiful, Angela! I especially love the reflection in the first and the framing in the third. Excellent eye and great captures!
