The Famous Maple

Taken on a perfect October day at the Japanese Garden in Portland, Oregon. The colors this autumn were the best that I have seen in over 16+ years in Oregon.

 

Portland's Japanese Garden is made up of five distinct gardens -- the strolling pond garden, the flat garden, the tea garden, the natural garden, and the sand and stone garden.

 

This particular Japanese maple is well-known among photographers in the garden -- it is certainly one of the most beautiful trees I have ever seen.
