It's on the estate of the Clingendael institute. The folder is the http://www.denhaag.nl/home/bewoners/to/Japanse-tuin.htm.

This is how it looked this morning. All piX are unedited from the small jpgs, I see I have to reduce contrast during RAW processing.

The only thing missing is the wedding scenery. Who knows.

of course I had plans to make that happen and it worked, but I wasn't there myself to make it happen. But finally after three months, the official pix are in.

My bunch :approve: Ruud and Patricia. (pic by John)
