A Set of Black and White Images

I wanted to do a set of B & W images and I thought some of the images from my trip to Mexico last year would come out really nice. So I searched my files and came up with these three. Two of them are from "Jardin Borda" and the other is just a tree in Santa Maria, Guerrero.

The is so much to see at this beautiful place. I can't imagine living in such a huge mansion complete with an amphitheater, a lake, many different gardens, and a big fountain wherever two paths cross.

The bridge is weather you go over or under leads to more gardens and the brick walkways are breath taking. If you are into plants you can spend the whole day here and still won't see everything.

A fascinating place to visit for sure and totally worth the $5.00 admission fee.

Here is a different take of an image we've framed before. "Jardin Borda Scene" I had a gold color mat and I didn't know what to do with it, so I started going through our files and decided on this image. I then had the image developed in sepia and went and bought a nice big brown frame. The end result is in my opinion really nice. I have a feeling this one won't last.

(Local Name: Jardin Borda) The Jardin Borda (Borda Garden), diagonally opposite the cathedral, was laid out in the second half of the 18th c. - by Jose de la Borda, the so-called "Solver King" from the mining town of Taxco. The park, restored most recently in 1987, contains terraced gardens, ponds, and an open-air theater. During their brief reign (1864-67) it was used by the Emperor Maximillian and his wife Charlotte for garden parties. The Casa de Maximiliano (restored 1960) in the Calle Galena was the imperial couple's summer residence.
