Description
There is a very tranquil place on the Kitsap Peninsula in Washington State USA that is the home of a very unique nursery. Included is a wonderful pond which is currently flowering (spring) and hundreds of bonsai plants. Leonardo da Vinci, Kubla Khan and Chinese philosopher Zhu Xi were each alive when some of the trees at Elandan Gardens took root. The collection, which includes trees more than 1000 years old, represents 50+ years of dedication to the art of bonsai by the caretaker - Dan. It is a peaceful place in which to meditate and contemplate the beauty in nature....and art. This work represents on of many photographs that I have taken at the place. I could present the original....which is pretty spectacular, but - as is my desire - I have submitted a manipulated version in which I have sought to emulate Monet.
