Return to photo

After the photo exhibition last weekend I decided to take more pictures. At least one per week that I like. Last Friday I was playing around with my reflex in the balcony door. This is the result.



Actually I have been doing this before (see my avatar on msn or facebook). I took something similar in Osaka when I was there with Daniel and Karin last month. It's Osaka as seen from Umeda Sky Bluilding.


That's it for this week!

Take care!

Kamakura


Hej! Just got back from my Sunday sento after a day walking the streets of Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku. I happened to run into an open-air photo exhibition and that made me realize that I haven't been taking many pictures lately. Very sad! So I promised myself that I will do that, and also that I will put them here. Enjoy. ;D

I went to Kamakura this weekend with a Swedish friend. Kamakura is a tiny city south of Tokyo famous for its temples and that it once was the capital of Japan (from 1185 to 1333).


This is probably the most famous temple of Kamakura, the Kotokuin with the Daibutsu (big buddha).


A beautiful "noren" of a temple called Kenchoji.


Momiji (red leaves) on the Daibutsu hiking course.


A family enjoying a beach called Yuigahama.

A cosy house seen from the Gion-san hiking course.




Less text more pictures! Full size versions are available at my Photobucket.


Take care.
