I tried taking photos of some fish at the Adelaide botanical gardens one day...that didn't work out very well.

I love those shaped doorways in the walls!

You really need a camera with a polarizing filter.

Thanks for dropping by!

I love the Chinese garden in Portland. Sadly I haven’t been back to the city since 2014 and I live just up the road in Seattle!

I also really like the Japanese Garden in Portland. Last visit we went to both in the same day! 😄 The city has some fantastic public spaces.

Thanks for dropping by! When the weather gets better I'd like to go back to the Japanese Garden.

!ENGAGE 25

Yeah if your rain situation is anything like it has been up here... outside has not been great this winter. Hope for some cool, crisp, dry days soon.

Normally this garden is very crowded. These photos offer some rare unimpeded views of the best sights. On a still, sunny, winter day the colors of the Chinese buildings look wonderful in the pond reflections.

Do they keep koi in the pond for winter? I am always curious when the best month is to view the lotus blossoms and water lilies.

We lucked out for a Sunday. I think everyone is just programmed for bad weather.

Good questions. I imagine they must do something if there is an extended freeze. I will mostly likely return in spring to check it out.
