My first photo stop was Downtown Bellevue Park. It's a really pretty green place in the middle of the concrete jungle. I sure don't miss living in the city. Seattle was fun at the time, but I wouldn't pick it now, it's still a great area to visit though.
Then I found a pretty cool little niche. The Bellevue Botanical Gardens. It is a free, very well maintained garden that isn't very far off the beaten path.
I played with logo ideas and here is my test run on my "Gentian" photo, what do you think?
There are still more photos on the web page in the portfolio and I have added options to purchase prints if you are interested.
