This photo stream needs a little green... Also taking the opportunity to dig up some older images: this one is from 2010, more than 12 years ago! Today I would process the image a little differently, likely brightening the foreground.

Hangesho is a strange plant that turns its upper leaves white instead of having flowers (*) They're used in Japanese gardens for the touch of color they bring in late June. Ryosoku-in is a great place to see them, as well as Toji-in.
(*) They do have tiny flowers but they're rather insignificant ;-)

Taken in a remote temple of Kyoto...
L'automne etait pas terrible a Kyoto cette annee, mais c'est pas une excuse ;-)
This "tsukubai" water basin is always decorated with some seasonal ikebana. Great attention to detail! ( ^^)v
So many fallen autumn leaves! And they didn't clean them every five minutes like in most other places so I didn't even have to set them up on the bamboo handrail myself (not that I would do that ;-)

The gate roof was replaced recently and will take a few years to be nicely covered with moss again...

I shot this picture 70.000 pictures ago ;-)
Un pottier exposait ses produits lors de cette visite speciale. Le ptit pot de fleur presente ici (sans fleurs ni support) est vendu au prix plancher de 2000 euros (!). Comme on dit: "Inutile de demander: si vous ne devinez pas le prix, vous ne pouvez pas vous le payer."

Not sure what all the flower are, but at least some are camellias. Note the bamboo holding some flowers over the water: it's normally used to hold a ladle for the water but there obviously no space for a ladle today :-)

I still need to get decent shots of Nison-in in autumn. On the todo list for next year!
