Heavenly Falls

Merry Christmas everyone!

This is an image of Heavenly Falls in the Portland Japanese Garden from the primary viewing area in front of the Koi ponds. An early November scene with overcast skies helped enhance the fall colors.

C&C always welcome.

Thanks Trent - it's hard to miss a good composition when the subject is this carefully arranged

Thanks Ben - this scene is definitely one of the highlights of the Portland Japanese Garden. It's a scene I photographed on every visit.

Thanks Jim - one of the more popular vantage points in the garden for almost everyone who visits. There is an equally fun display in the spring as quite a few of the low longleaf green shrubs in this scene are either rhododendrons or azaleas.

Thanks Bob - the best part of this scene is what the gardener designers created for us to see and shoot.
