Clouds reflected in a garden pool where koi can swim "in the clouds". Macduff shared that clouds have significant symbolic presence in Japanese culture and are emphasized in gardens. They are symbols of change, impermanence, mystery, and potential, as well as the domain of the gods and the sacred. This exquisite reflection was spotted at the Adachi Museum of Art in Yasugi, Japan.
