Two pictures taken at Jardin des Plantes at the end of the fall. I used a new expert compact camera, the Panasonic LX5.

A Japanese, a French and an English garden altogether with three forest types in the middle of Boulogne…

The glass and steel dome called La Géode was designed by Adrien Fainsilber and it was opened in 1986.

The 64 water jets in André Citroën park are a lot of fun for children during the last days of summer.

I continue with another three shots from Central Park; the first two are views on Central Park South from the pond.
