Over Kobe 2

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 29 January 2009 in Cityscape & Urban.

View on a rainy day across Kobe city, Hyogo prefecture, from Kobe University on Mt. Rokko.

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!

EYES WIDE SHUT from United Kingdom

The world is brought to our doorsteps with the blogosphere, and here I see a scene that I have never before viewed. Very nicely captured with those ominous clouds rolling across the sky.

Japanese cities always look so vast, Kobe seems to stretch on forever here.

@Richard_Irwin: It's true... you'd be hard pressed to see a break between Kobe and Osaka if you could see a panorama of the region.

Kobe must be an important seaport with all those cranes in the background!
