Botanical garden - Padua Italy

[photoni]

The botanical garden of Padua, founded in 1545, is the oldest botanical garden in the world, created to register medicinal plants.

 

I went back to see the new tropical greenhouse, great.

I only brought the A7 with the Soligor 35mm f: 3.5 with TSN575 + ZWB2 all freehand.

Congratulations on the impressive photos, Antoni!

Your equipment is as small as it is effective. Also impressive! And the combination of the ZWB2 and the TSN575 seems great at blocking NIR - I can't see any trace of "green".

The pictures of the pink cornus and the yellow irises are the best for me.

 

Many thanks for sharing :)

I really enjoyed seeing some flowers I've never seen before. Thanks, Toni.

 

Also enjoyed seeing the church. Three domes!

Interesting flowers! I think the one labeled an "orchid" is a pitcher plant (nepenthes) though? It looks like the ones Adrian posted.
