Default Seagull sculpture.... we may be all guilty of this...a flower...searching for Nemo!!

We spent the day in Auckland today so popped into the Auckland Botanical gardens for some photography, but found some more interesting things than flowers to capture instead

Seagull sculpture in B and W with no adjustment.

No adjustment at all B&W.

A white flower with some sepia treatment.

Flower in sepia with a tweak

We may be all guilty of this photography position ( I know I am ) have proof!!!!

A photographer subject

I'm sure Nemo's down here somewhere!!

Searching for Nemo

Thanks for viewing, cheers Steve.
