I still haven't gone through all my photos from yesterday's trip to the garden at Kyoto's Eikando Temple, but I wanted to show a few more, so here are some from the middle of the batch. Like yesterday's most of these are best appreciated with a large, wide-gamut monitor.

What was the mystery lens for the shots? The 100ZF?

Oops, yes, sorry. It’s not a chipped lens, so I have to manually update the lens info, and forgot this time. Fixed. —Jeffrey

Hello,

nice to see your view of the bridge, which is almost the same I did one year ago (but in was in spring and I think it was the only one place where I found some nice colors)
Here is my photo http://bit.ly/7y7NUk from 2008

Your photos are always so beautiful !

Thanks

That’s a wonderful shot. The azaleas are excellent dating evidence for late-April early-May (and indeed, I see it’s May 11th). Very nice. —Jeffrey

I like the Grove a lot, has a very nice 3D quality to it.

I always liked Japanese Maples, never been able to plant one while I lived in FL. I planted one immediately after moving to Flagstaff.
