They called this a snow viewing lantern. I don’t know why. I have been neglecting my image of the week postings because I am still up to my ears in processing photos from Japan and creating a scrapbook of the trip. But when I came across this photo I thought it deserved special recognition. Of course I am always a sucker for Japanese Lanterns. This was one of 15 in a garden crammed into a site less than a half acre in area. Paradise.
