Japanese Garden

London has so many wonderful galleries tucked away in every corner of the city.  In the heart of Bloomsbury is one of my favourites, the Brunei Gallery which is on the campus of the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS).  My last visit was to see Colours of Change - Sri Lanka the work of photographer Stephen Champion who has lived and worked in Sri Lanka for 28 years.

The gallery is a wonderful space worthy of a visit in its own,  especially the tranquil Japanese rooftop garden.

There is a growing tendency to use all spaces for garden creation. It's a wonderful way to bring life and interest to brick and stone.

If you didn't see it, check out the street photography of Vivien Maier, it was on BBC 1 Monday this week, 10:35pm - can still get it on iPlayer. A must see.

These secret open spaces make such a difference in a big metropolis. I've never peeked into SOAS.

I love Japanese Gardens, we have one at the Botanical Gardens here in Montreal and it is always so peaceful there!
