View from the Clear and Transcendent Pavilion looking south(fisheye).
This view from the Clear and Transcendent Pavilion looks south over the Lake of Reflected Fragrance to the Terrace that Invites the Mountains with the Jade Ribbon Bridge on the left. This was shot on my first visit to the gardens after I got my fisheye lens. I’d just visited Mission San Gabriel and the gardens were close to my return route; since I have a membership, why not?
The day was somewhat cloudy(I actually got rained on a bit at the mission), so I did some additional post processing(contrast and saturation using the Nik Collection from Google) to really bring out the clouds.
