A Quiet Space, Nara

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 26 May 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

Wandering in one of the many gardens that are to be found in the temple district of Nara.

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

Good capture, shame we're missing the bit of path on the left. The contrasts are excellent
