Minihaha II

After developing

Japanese Gardens and Minihaha Falls

The Japanese Gardens

Playing with aperture (on the camera, not on a mac)

Playing with shutter speed

Shutter speed at 1/4 sec. Reminds me of the Seven Sacred Pools

A mistake with white balance

Just having fun

On the bridge at the gardens

Good day

Japanese Gardens

It was pleasant, considering that it was in Richfield, MN. I suppose if the Japanese Gardens were in Japan, they would have been called simply “Gardens.”

After seeing the real thing, its hard to be swept away by the beauty of a fabrication.

Nevertheless, photos to come. When I finish my C.S. Lewis paper, editing and uploading them will be my reward.

Reading The Problem of Pain and A Grief Observed. I alternated chapters to get a good sense of what Lewis believed about pain and what he experienced when his wife Joy died. If I had ever experienced a comparable loss, I think I would have cried through A Grief Observed.
