Steps across the water

Although we walked around much of the estate, we spent a lot of time in the Japanese Garden, which we had never visited in spring.

A lot of people were crossing the pond on these steps, but they reminded me of the “steps” across a water-filled wadi in Morocco where Tim slipped and broke his foot. I decided to just look instead.

Nicely composed view of the pond and stepping stones. I understand your apprehension about crossing the pond. V

I was going to ask you if you walked across there until I read your statement. I remember when Tim broke his foot. Good decision just to photograph this pretty place! V

I want to be there, I want to be there. You make the place so inviting. If it's half as beautiful as you photograph it, I can only repeat: I want to be there. V-A+

A very nice place ! It always a pleasure for senses and soul to walk into a Japanese garden. Rocks, water, flowers and trees : everything seems to breath in harmony. V.
