Royal Botanic Gardens with the Voigtländer Nokton 40mm 1:1.2 and Sony α7R

This is the fifth of a series of articles showcasing pictures taken on the Voigtländer Nokton 40mm 1:1.2. These pictures were taken at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney.

According to Wikipedia, the Royal Botanic Gardens is a heritage-listed major 30-hectare (74-acre) botanical garden, event venue and public recreation area located at Farm Cove on the eastern fringe of the Sydney central business district.

This is another good opportunity to showcase how the lens capture wider landscape type compositions with a variety of colours.
