Beautiful photography of an amazing garden. I've never seen so many shades of green. The serene images left me feeling like I was in a dream! Can't wait to see the rest of your albums. Roxanne, Alberta

hello again Yoshiyuki, a lovely cool green album. I guess it would qualify as at least 90% green, takes a lot of rain for that! Eric

Yoshiyuki, you have such a touch and feel for natural beauty. I love this album and now I have so much more to explore in your other albums. I don't know how I got here, but I'm glad I ended up in your albums. Alan (Connecticut, USA)

Native of Narita, Chiba. I grew up a place just like this. Brought many memories from that time of my childhood. Absolutely wonderful photos. Though since Airport came to my town, things had changed a lot then, but it is still my home town. Thank you from Las Vegas for the beautiful photos, Mr. Tanaka.

Yoshiyuki, this is a beautiful album, green, green, beautiful green and with a wonderful story woven through it. This is, as Trudy said, feature material! ... Good day, my friend, Judy aka L@dybug, Florida

It must have been a very happy childhood you spent in this lush and green homestead. You are both a poet in words and photos -good candidate for a future feature. Delia

Hi Yoshiyuki, you have created a wonderful and magical album. (Pictures and story line). I hope this will make the featured spot, so that many more Webshot friends would be able to enjoy it as I did. Thank you, Trudy
