Kubota Gardens
In the near future we will feature a visit to Seattle's Kubota Gardens. This is a wonderful and somewhat overlooked beauty spot in the Puget Sound area. Photos below were taken this past week when we stopped by to see if there were early signs of spring.

ReplyDeleteYour pictures are stunning. You find beauty in some of the most unexpected places,like a tall building in the fog. I like that. Have a wonderful weekend,and thanks for your visits and comments on my blog.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful series of photos. Love the duck reflection!
ReplyDeleteThese are all lovely... We are transplanted Pacific NW people ...Eugene OR area, but kids in Sea/Tac area and yet never heard of the Kubota? Gardens... On my list for next summer . Did you use Picassa for the drawing style picture?
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos! I especially like the tower in the fog.
ReplyDeleteI am fan of fog, and your fog shots are especially lovely. But the new growth? That's the best! I will be in Seattle next Wednesday visiting the Flower and Garden show. We are gaining 3 and a half minutes on sunlight every day now, John!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos...my preference is not the drawing style...can't focus my eyes on anything.

ReplyDeleteHello John,
ReplyDeleteI am new to your blog and I must say that I do like your photographs in this post. I think that if I had to choose a favourite it would be the trees reflected in the pond.
Bye for now
Kirk
Nicely shot John like the Fog and the tree
ReplyDeleteBeautiful captures, John!
ReplyDeleteJohn, you feature such beauty in this post! Ohh ... those fog shots are especially magical. I'm looking forward to your future post on Kubota Gardens, as your photographs are always so very stunning. The new growth image put a smile on my face. It's nice to see color. Lovely captures!
ReplyDeleteJohn, are lovely cyclamen on your photo.
ReplyDeleteI love these flowers.
I send greetings.
