Japanese Gardens at Fabyan Villa Museum Built in 1910, the Japanese Garden is a tranquil environment where history melds with nature and design. George and Nelle Fabyan developed an intense appreciation for Japanese culture. They commissioned renowned landscape designer Taro Otsuka to design a Japanese style garden on their property. The nearby river and surrounding woods provided a nice backdrop for a Japanese-style garden, which relies on local scenery for its vistas. In 1974 the Geneva Garden Club restored the Japanese Garden, which was now part of the Fayban Forest Preserve. This garden affords everyone the opportunity to experience the uniqueness of Japanese gardening and enjoy a moment of harmony with nature while strolling its winding paths.

A little snow last night made for a pretty day today. The 30-110mm lens certainly is not made for shooting close-ups of snow. It was the camera I had, in hand, today. Still, it’s not a bad image for a telephoto.
