Brooklyn Botanic Garden
Most folks have heard of the BBC - British Broadcasting Company, England's official media outlet.

For folks who aren't near Brooklyn, the website has a selection of photos. The Lemming may want to revisit that page in a few months, when central Minnesota's frozen over. It gets cold in Brooklyn, too, by the way: two of the photos show winter scenes.
