Frank Lloyd Wright: Yodoko Guest House 2

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 28 February 2007 in Architecture.

It was quite an overcast day when I took these shots. I've done a fair bit of tuning to this one. I plan to go back here to try to get some more shots when the weather and light are better, to try to do justice to this fantastic building.

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!

Jerry from Tampa, United States

Great perspective Daroru - neat shot!

@Jerry: Thank you Jerry.

Jen from Jessup, United States

I really like the perspective...gives it some depth. Very nice!

@Jen: Thanks for your visit Jen.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

It definitely doesn't look like Japan. Cool perspective here. Love the lush greenery in the background.

@Stu: Thanks Stu. The house is set into a hillside; surrounded by foliage. Now with the main road and private property around it, it's hard to get a shot of just the house. Don't actually know if it's possible. Will check that out next time I go.

Craiger from Vacaville, California, United States

Yes, I like the perspective too! Good candid shot!

@Craiger: Thank you Craiger!

Dawn Sutherland from Phoenix, United States

Nice shot, I hate when you go somewhere and the weather will not cooperate!

@Dawn Sutherland: Thanks Dawn... Yeah, there are ways round it I suppose, but I'm not that skilled. Can't beat nice sunlight.

Behrooz from Tehran, Iran

Wow excellent angle!

[I had net connection problems today. And when I came, I was amazed by the comments on my last picture. I added a note to the image and decided to keep it another day.]

@Behrooz: Cheers Behrooz!

Ahraht from Loures, Portugal

But you did it right. It's quite fine to me.

@Ahraht: Bless you Ahraht!
