Spring Rain, Iwakura Jisso-in Temple, 1 (岩倉実相院)

Posted by
GJC (Kyoto, Japan) on 25 May 2008 in Landscape & Rural.

This was a breathtaking day at one of my favorite temples, a quiet place in the north of the city. This will be the first in a short series showing the temple's gardens and spring greens in the rain. Hope you enjoy the tranquility.

I am away right now, but I appreciate your visiting and I look forward to repaying your visit when I return.

Enchanting scene and you took it so well, the varying greens, the soft droplets of rain, it's exquisite :)
