"I took this picture while visiting Sarasota, Fl. at the Selby botanical gardens," wrote Toni Adler,  Atlanta. " They were having a Salvador Dali exhibit and it was absolutely beautiful and exciting to see how they transformed the gardens with pieces of art.  This one was a piano filled with plants floating in a lagoon with fish swimming all around it.   Just gorgeous.  And there were so many surprises all over the gardens.   Definitely worth a trip to see it."
