share a parking lot and both offer a lot of great options for photos.
Simpson Park has a great field that changes with the seasons; wild flowers in the spring, green grass in the early summer
and tall dry grass in the fall. There's a great trail through the forest that offers year-around protection from the rain and
great color in the fall. This is a favorite Albany location for many of my clients.
Talking Water Gardens has walking paths, wooden bridges and some small water features. It does not have any rain protection.
