Description
I used infrared to capture this image at the Missouri Botanical Gardens in St. Louis, Missouri. I shot this image in the Seiwa-en Japanese Garden designed by Koichi Kawana. Seiwa-en is the Garden of Pure, Clear, Harmony and Peace.
This is a perfect photo for a meditation room, yoga studio, home or office. Bring some harmony back into your hurried life.
This image is one of five in my Feng Shui series. The presence of this image in a home or business environment creates a sense of focus. While much household ornamentation can be appreciated for its aesthetics, in feng shui the primary purpose has been to solicit good fortune for it's inhabitants. Our surroundings project onto our moods and spirits. The things we look at, even if just a glimpse, effect our subconscious. We can accomplish harmony by using art which is first of all aesthetic ,but also functional to create a sense of ease and good fortune in our everyday lives.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.

Peace and harmony indeed, Jane - a beautiful scene with so many grand textures. Reminds me that public gardens are beautiful in winter - one of my favorites to visit at this time of year is Butchart Gardens in Victoria, British Columbia. V/F

Jane, Fantastic scenic shot of this beautiful location in Missouri, I have several Botanical Gardens in NY that I have been to the most popular one being in Brooklyn and a lot on Long Island. Love the details in the foreground and the background. Great angle at which you have shot this at using the foreground as your guide and seeing into the water and following up to the bridge. Great depth in this photo with a great sky shot at the end. Excellent photo, voted, google, tweet and FB promoted
