A Scottish photographer has captured "beautiful" photos of a Japanese Garden located in the grounds of Cowden Castle.
Cindy Blades was visiting the attraction near Cowden to celebrate her birthday when she took the "stunning" photos. Various points of interest can be seen in the pictures, including the 'yatsuhashi' zigzag bridge, the 'sorihashi' arched bridge, and the azumaya roofed structure.
The garden dates back to 1908, after Scottish traveller Ella Christie was inspired by a trip to Asia to build a Japanese garden. She commissioned designer Taki Handa to create the seven-acre site in Clackmannanshire.
