[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Suzhou, a province of Shanghai, is best known for its perfectly landscaped, classical Chinese Gardens, designed to create a universe in a small space. This exactly what I tried to do when I shot this cozy corner of the " Humble Administrator's Garden ".
On this special case I had used my wife's tiny pocket Fujı camera, and after so many years with NIKONs I was surprised to find out that the result was rather good. Hence the different format of this frame

Bonjour Izzet
Voici de beaux jardins avec des batiments typiques. Pour en avoir la preuve personelle, les appeireils Fuji sont excellent. La différence est surtout au niveau de la profondeur de champ souvent excessive, du grain du a la taille du capteur.
Amicalement

Merhaba İzzet Bey,
Bence kameranın ne olduğu değil, ona kimin kumanda ettiği ve arkasında durduğu daha önemli... Aynen bu fotoğrafda olduğu gibi... Bence Fuji bu fotoğrafı kameranın reklam ve tanıtımında kullanmalı :)

hi Izzet. I was there a number of years ago and there was nothing humble about the administrator and his magnificent garden. A misnomer if there ever was one. Your photo does capture some of the rich landscaping . Lovely colours and pleasant view. I love the old tree framing the scene. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi İzzet bey,

amazing and very peaciful garden..thanks for sharing

Hello Izzet. A good result indeed with the small compact camera. The quiet atmosphere of the garden is well portrayed, and the ensemble of pagoda roofs, vivid red elements, the greenery and the pond blends into a harmonious total.

Wow, this is a garden. Simply wonderful, with those nice roofs and beautiful decorations on the verandas. Using the tree to frame the composition was an excellent idea. Very well done.

Almost unreal.
Such a nice composition, so lovely colours.
May your hands be healthy, as it is said in Turkish :))

Hi Izzet
Lovely shot of the gardens. I've not been there but my father told me the Suzhou gardens are much nicer than those in Beijing. The angle you've here is nice and good depth too. TFS!

Merhaba Izzet bey,
japon bahçesinin klasik kırmızısı ve yeşili ile uyumunu çok iyi sergilemişsiniz. dinlendirici bir resim. saygı ve sevgilerimle.

Hello Izzet,
As I brouse through the photographic gallery, I am often attracted by scenery that I know, and as exotic as the "Humble Administrator's Garden" is, I've been there. You've captured the soul of the site, and clearly, when no one was around to mar the simple beauty. I remember a round gateway, 'Heavenly Gate,' quite prominent in the garden.
Warm regards,
Bulent
