This is a photo I took at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, Az. In the boat is glass orbs that the artist Chihuyly, makes by hand. It was beautiful to see the bright colors against the desert garden greens and browns. His work was only going to be displayed for two months, I felt very luck to see it. Like always comments are welcomed.

Now there's something you don't see everyday. Sure is colorful. Very nice, and thanks for sharing this unusual sight.

You win the prize for the most surprising image of the Easter - perhaps of the month - anyway this jumps out at one when viewed in full size.
10/10 of course ...

I've seen a Chihuyly exhibit in Washington DC and I am convinced that his work is unforgettable for anyone who sees it in person. This picture is outstanding.
