Weekend Reflections

This is the Brooklyn Botanic's famous Japanese garden 
(the first to be created in an American public garden, in 1915).
It was designed by Japanese landscape designer Takeo Shiota and 
is considered by many to be his masterpiece. Among the
architectural elements used by Shiota are bridges, a
viewing pavilion, and a torii, or gateway (seen here).
