Leaves of Glass

Washington Park Botanical Garden is presenting a Botanical Infusion Exhibit. Featuring more than 20 pieces by local glass artist Ed Martin with collaboration in metal by artists Darrin Miller, Ed Fraase and Brian Luparell.

 

The warm air in the botanical dome was a welcome contrast to the very cold and blustery day outside.

 

These glass and metal works of art both stood out and bleneded with the variety of green plants.

 

I spent a delightful hour, soaking up the warmth, the beauty and artistic skills on display.

 

It was a real challenge to take good photos of the glass pieces. The dome above, fills the garden with soft light and the glare on the glass was everywhere.

 

I was taking photos from all angles. I got a few good ones out of over 230+ frames taken.

 

This circular piece picks up the stripes from the leaves underneath and some of the surrounding leaves. It caught my eye, but was tough to get without glare.
