My family and I LOVE Japanese gardens. We have visited a number of stunning creations up and down the coast of the Pacific Northwest. The images on this page are just a sampling of the pictures I’ve taken in these places of breathtaking beauty. They always make me feel alive and connected, and that coming to planet Earth was not such a bad idea after all. Enjoy!
