Fresh leaves in Tsurugaoka-hachimangu


The beautiful combination of green colors of fresh leaves made me sense the calm but energetic renewing of life force in spring.

These trees stand beside the "Genpei-ike" pond in this shrine.

The dark quiet surface of water between the trees seems like the secret path toward the far distant bamboo grove where sages live.
