Gibbs Gardens is a park-like property hidden in the North Georgia mountains, near the community of Big Canoe. This was their first year open to the public. Lucky me, they are less than 15 miles away, and all of it country roads. As close as they are, I barely managed to get in a March and October visit!
October was gorgeous. The valley and manor gardens are studded with Japanese Maples, threaded with reflecting ponds, and laced with hydrangea and ferns. I took the new camera, set it on ISO 400, and loaded the macro lens.
Today's offering is Carex and Fern, draping along the bank...probably of the Japanese garden area. Be Still, quiet your mind, breathe in the complex aromas of life at the pond. Listen for the small sounds.
