Early Blooming Cherry Blossoms

The photos of alleys in Miyajima, Hiroshima Japan. Different from the main street to Itsukushima Shrine, the back alleys are really quiet. The daily life of the locals. But the casual atmosphere fascinates me little by little. Photography by Canon Rebel SL1 (100d).

The Town where Now and the Past Have Crossed

The travel of Takehara Historical District in Hiroshima, Japan, described with monochrome photos. This area with their history for over 1000 years has really mysterious atmosphere. I feel as if I’m traveling back in time while walking, but it attracts me gradually.

The Very Old Railway Bridge

I found a very old railway bridge during walking around Otaru. The brick-made girders and the iron-made rails. But most of them are covered with ivy. I feel as if straying into some ruins.

Seeking Blue

Photographs taken at Otaru Harbor (Otaru Chikko) in Hokkaido, Japan. The fresh blue of the sky, and the deep blue of the sea. Such various kinds of “blue” were so attractive, that made me release the shutters.
