One of the things I regret most about all of the years I was working is that I didn't call in sick often enough! So here's an opportunity for those who would, and for all of us that don't have to work anymore. Weather permitting, we will while away a few hours wandering among nature's best with friends and folks with the same interests. All manner of close-up devices, macro lenses, and cameras are welcome and though suggested, all forms of photography not just macro are fine. From 6 -9 pm the Garden will feature a “Little Caribbean Last Lap Garden Fête” so those that would like to sick around for awhile can enjoy that. (Free with garden admission)

All levels of photographic skill are welcome from novices with cell phones to professionals with elaborate setups.
Remember, as the English Poet Dorothy Frances Gurney wrote
"The kiss of the sun for pardon, The song of the birds for mirth, One is nearer God's heart in a garden, Than anywhere else on earth."We do not need permits for general photography however, please note
FROM THE GARDEN: Unless specifically allowed on your permit, tripods, body mounts, and selfie sticks may not be used in the Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden, the Conservatory, or flower beds. Please do not block paths. Drones are not permitted.Please be on time! The NYC Subway System is a hellscape of unimaginable delays that will wreak havoc on your mind, body, schedule, and soul. Plan your trip with some extra time!
