Cincinnati Conservatory


While we were in Cincinnati this past Fall we spent some time in the Conservatory. It was lush and resembled a dense tropical forest. I took many photographs and have been mulling over in my mind how I would interpret the photos. Today it has been raining heavily and the air is thick with humidity. I began to think of a tropical Rain Forest and how I would depict it. I decided on an abstract theme with lots of vibrant color. Today was a wonderful Play Day!!
