    Wow, that is one stunning Japanese Garden! It radiates such a stillness that just looking at your pictures makes me feel very calm. I have the impression that the design is a more modern interpretation of traditional Japanese Garden Design. Very interesting! Thanks for sharing!

    What simple and elegant fencing they have! It's Japanese looking without getting cliche. Some beautiful stones/rocks, also. The lack of flower color makes the trees pop color even more. There's some great ideas here! Thanks...lovely pictures as always.

    Simply gorgeous photos! I've seen several posts on this place from other "Flingers." If I ever get to Seattle, the Bloedel Reserve will be at the top of my must-see list!
