Continuing with the Snowy Gardens of the Heian Shrine series (earlier parts: Part I, Part II) from last Sunday's snowy morning walk in Kyoto, we had just arrived at the garden's covered bridge when it started to snow again.

Protecting Mommy from the Snowflakes
Quite coincidentally, a few days before I took these pictures, I happened to have posted some pictures of the gardens from last summer, including one of a bride having her picture taken at this spot:

Exiting the Gardens
Finally, here's a shot that's not particularly great, but I thought I'd share it because for some reason it really makes my eyes spin. It's almost as if it's been taken with a Lensbaby (a special-effects lens)...
