View toward Kobe from Rokko Bridge

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 18 February 2007 in Business & Industry and Portfolio.

Spent a day at Rokko Island last week. It's a man-made island near Kobe, part of the Kobe Port complex. Funny old place. I'll post a few more pics of what I saw there over the next couple of days, I think.

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

I like of the elements of the clouds and the form of the port to reinforce perspective.... The industrial zones are good subjects of work!
