Giant Raspberry. DP136-2013 Posted May 16; processed ditto I thought I'd follow up yesterday's shot of a sublime experience (hand feeding wild birds) with something on the ridiculous side. This is the sculpture representing the sense of taste in the Five Senses portion of the Lena Meijer Children's Garden. I used the eyeball from this garden as my opening shot when I joined the DailyPhotos community. This outrageous over-sized tongue with its Clara Bow lips (or as Jean-Yves suggests, Mick Jagger lips) makes me laugh. I hope you at least get a chuckle from it. . Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park Grand Rapids, Michigan May 13, 2013 I was very cheered yesterday by the overwhelming response to my shot of the titmouse feeding from my sister's hand. Thanks to all who took the time to comment. The shot shot to the number 2 spot in my Popular Photos ranking. I wish each of you could, someday, have the same thrill we enjoyed. At least now you know one place to come to in order to do just that.

The south face of the Conservatory Buildings, lit by the sun of an autumn afternoon. The perspective is from the path through the English Perennial Garden. Clearly there were still some colorful blooms...mostly chrysanthemums and asters, complimented by ornamental grasses.
