Winter Days, Sonoda

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 18 March 2008 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

The weather's beginning to warm up nicely here now, so I thought I'd post a few little icy shots to bid farewell to this year's winter days...

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!

Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia

the b/w works very well. I love the falling snow you have captured.

vu@granby - Wolfgang from Granby, Quebec, Canada

Here the last snowfalls of the season are still a few weeks away, they will be wet and slushy like the snow in your photo today. The wet snow feels a lot colder than the dry snow we get in the deep of winter, even though the thermometer says otherwise..

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: I know what you mean Wolfgang. That wet, slushy time is always the most miserable. It didn't last long where I live though. Good luck in the coming weeks!

Twelvebit from Victoria, United States

I was going to say "very nice," but as Vikram said, "splendid" is more like it.

@Twelvebit: Cheers Twelvebit!

Twelvebit from Victoria, United States

BTW, your image from yesterday is more "Tokyo Drifter" than today's (I love that movie --wish they'd put it out in Blu-ray).
