Shukugawa

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 8 April 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

Wandering along by the Shukugawa river. Quite overcast, as I said yesterday, so I've fiddled around with the picture to try to bring the colours out a bit. Slightly unnatural, but I quite liked the effect.

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 what you did with it as well, but I would kill to hear the story of the tree growing out of the footpath at a 45 degree angle.

Looks like the perfect place for a spring "sroll through the park"!

@Mehdi: Thanks Mehdi! I think the best way to come over here is with employment - very hard to just come here and then find work.

Evie from Fairfax, Virginia, United States

Lovely scene. You've made it look rather painterly, nice job.
