This colourful mosaic/sculpture wall is part of the entrance-way to the authentic Chinese Garden area of our local Public Gardens. (I have a photo of the entrance HERE if you care to look) The Chinese garden pays tribute to the contribution and heritage of the many Chinese who have lived in this area since last century...."The Chinese dragon is a symbol of wisdom, power, and luck in Chinese culture, and are seen as benevolent and kind.They control the rain, rivers, lakes, and sea. They can ward off wandering evil spirits, protect the innocent, and bestow safety unto all". .Panasonic DMC-FZ7.. Thank you for taking a look.Any comments are most welcome and always appreciated.

I agree with Chris, when I downloaded this it just leaped out! The detail is amazing and I love how you captured it dimensionally (is that a word?? :0) This is beautiful.... ~Mary~

It is horrifying that we have to fight our own government to save the environment.

Wow, let's hear it for dragons! I love the colorfulness of this image and the angle you took it at is wonderful, Eve.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Your angle on this is great! The "dragon-like orchid" looked meaner than this guy...he's practically smiling! :)

To linger in the observation of things other than the self implies a profound conviction of their worth.

Lyn, I love the way you've captured this Chinese dragon, but I don't have forget to say too that the colours are great. Anyhow, a beautiful image. Regards, Cornelius
