Kyoto Hogon-in autumn illumination

The garden of the Hōgon-in temple in Kyoto features a complex design, with many symbols. I already presented the wooden lantern that creates through light and shadow the image of the Rising Sun flag.

Photographed here is another area, with symbols emphasized through light colors: in the foreground there's a dry area lit in blue, symbolizing the Buddhist concept of the Sea of Suffering (the real world), with a warm colored area in the background symbolizing Nirvana, while the several rocks are representing Buddha.
