In the gardens of the Dali Museum in St Pete, stands a Wish Tree, a brightly decorated ficus tree.
Visitors and locals alike are invited to tie a ribbon to the strings that fly gaily in the wind.
Each ribbon, or museum wrist band, represents a wish, in a ritual that relates to Hindu and Scottish traditions, apparently.
Traditional or not, it provides a bright and tranquil corner to these lovely gardens.
For more on this incredible museum, see I Dillied and I Dali-ed.

Yes, I was pleased with these shots – I took them as part of my photography homework that week, which was focussing on shutter speed
