Secret teachings - a photo on Flickriver

Secret teachings

On Saturdays I like to join a Zen meditation class at Hakone Gardens, a Japanese garden in Saratoga, California. We meditate in a traditional Japanese house with tatami floors made of straw.

I processed a balanced, a paintery, and a photographic HDR photo from three RAW exposures, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Thank you for visiting - ♡ with gratitude! Fave if you like it, add comments below, like the Facebook page, order beautiful HDR prints at qualityHDR.com.
