The Japanese Garden in Portland is operated by the Japanese Garden Society of Oregon, a non-profit concern. If you are in the Portland area, I highly recommend a visit. It is a beautiful, peaceful place. It is unfortunate that the Society is not as friendly toward photographers as it once was. intro Waterfall in the Strolling Pond JG-0001 japanese gardens jgardens01.jpg jgrdntn01.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Steps leading from Scholar's Bench JG-0003 japanese gardens jgardens03.jpg jgrdntn03.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Moon Bridge JG-0004 japanese gardens jgardens04.jpg jgrdntn04.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Deer Chaser JG-0005 japanese gardens jgardens05.jpg jgrdntn05.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Backlit Foliage JG-0006 japanese gardens jgardens06.jpg jgrdntn06.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Camellia Blossom JG-0007 japanese gardens jgardens07.jpg jgrdntn07.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Inlaid Stone Walkway JG-0008 japanese gardens jgardens08.jpg jgrdntn08.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Laceleaf Maple in Spring JG-0009 japanese gardens jgardens09.jpg jgrdntn09.jpg Washington County Fair, 1998 First Place blue Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Azalea Blossoms JG-0010 japanese gardens jgardens10.jpg jgrdntn10.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Spring Color in the Gardens JG-0012 japanese gardens jgardens12.jpg jgrdntn12.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Laceleaf Maple in Fall #1 JG-0013 japanese gardens jgardens13.jpg jgrdntn13.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Under the Moon Bridge JG-0014 japanese gardens jgardens14.jpg jgrdntn14.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Ornamental Lantern JG-0015 japanese gardens jgardens15.jpg jgrdntn15.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Spider Web JG-0017 japanese gardens jgardens17.jpg jgrdntn17.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Antique Gate JG-0019 japanese gardens jgardens19.jpg jgrdntn19.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Young Maple in Fall JG-0020 japanese gardens jgardens20.jpg jgrdntn20.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Laceleaf Maple in Fall #2 JG-0021 japanese gardens jgardens21.jpg jgrdntn21.jpg Washington County Fair, 2000 Honorable Mention green Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Fall Color over Strolling Pond JG-0022 japanese gardens jgardens22.jpg jgrdntn22.jpg Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Fall Color, Large Waterfall JG-0023 japanese gardens jgardens23.jpg jgrdntn23.jpg Washington County Fair, 2003 First Place blue Pentax PZ-70 35mm 2001 Ken Dietz Rainwater dripping down chain JG-0024 japanese gardens jgardens24.jpg jgrdntn24.jpg Mamiya RZ Pro II 6cm x 7cm 2001 Ken Dietz Moon Bridge and Lantern in Fall JG-0025 japanese gardens jgardens25.jpg jgrdntn25.jpg Mamiya RZ Pro II 6cm x 7cm 2001 Ken Dietz Moon Bridge in Fall JG-0026 japanese gardens jgardens26.jpg jgrdntn26.jpg Mamiya RZ Pro II 6cm x 7cm 2001 Ken Dietz Strolling Pond in Fall JG-0027 japanese gardens jgardens27.jpg jgrdntn27.jpg Mamiya RZ Pro II 6cm x 7cm 2001 Ken Dietz Misty Morning in the Garden JG-0028 japanese gardens jgardens28.jpg jgrdntn28.jpg Mamiya RZ Pro II 6cm x 7cm 2001 Ken Dietz Perhaps the most photographed tree in the Gardens.
