Japanese Garden, Washington Park Arboretum
The Japanese Garden in the Washington Park Arboretum, 1075 Lake Washington Blvd. E., Seattle.
Fair warning: These photos didn’t turn out as well as I would have liked. I was using The Boyfriend (TB)’s camera, and I’m not familiar with it, so maybe some of the settings were incorrect. Also, the pictures were taken late on an overcast, yet still somehow sunny, fall afternoon. In photos where the sky is visible, it looks blown out (i.e., too light), the landscape looks shaded and off-color, and edges and finer details are blurry – which is weird because TB’s camera has image stabilization. All of these things combined made for some eerie – and sometimes really cool – contrast and coloration.
