colour

This evening I've been looking back through some photos of when we first moved to Portland, OR, USA in late 2004.  I came across these wonderful pictures taken at the Japanese Garden.  The colours were amazing and I remember loving this place soooo much.

    Oh, that is just BEAUTIFUL. I am inspired to continue with my gardening - despite the fact that it will never look like that!

    These photos make me nostalgic. We had a Japanese Maple in our front yard growing up and how the colour changed from season to season was just incredible. These photos are gorgeous. Do you have any framed? I love the third photo.
