Hakone Gardens

Click on any photo to enlarge it.The photography club held a shoot-out at Hakone Gardens in Saratoga, the oldest Japanese style estate in the western Hemisphere. The placement of plants, stones, waterfalls and ponds creates a harmonious and tranquil atmosphere that invites visitors to wander, contemplate, and photograph.

Most of the spring blooms were long gone, but...I hope you enjoyed your scroll through the gardens.

  1. love that waterfall shot! And I love that hat shot too. I'm a sucker for hat shots. Your Yosemite pictures are beautiful and it makes me want to take a trip there with my camera. :)
