Photography is one the things I love doing most, I'm thinking of taking photography lessons at the university... but I havn't decided, aways take look and enjoy.

These are Torii (Toe-ree), the entrance gates to a shrine here in Tokyo, a total of 180, yes I counted them!

These three were taken at Koishikawa Korakuen Gardens, the gardens have been around for over 400 years, they were built during the rule of the Tokugawa family, originally made of 63 acres then reduced to 17.5 acres during the Tokyo expasion project, the stone artifacts in the first two pictures have remained undisturbed since day one, they survived the earthquake of 1920, the fire of 1932, and the flood of 1934. The gardens are one of the few places in Japan to recieve certification from the goverment as both a cultural historic site and a special historical asset.




This is a natural spring fed fron the Kanda water source.

My Goodness, if you take a class....they'll get even better?!?!
Hard to imagine cause these are really good! You certianly have a good eye for it. There are a few members here that have a knack for photography....
wish I was one of them.

Thanks for the support everyone, I knew my pictures were decent, but I did'nt know they where that good, I want to take classes so I have the credintials and certificate, it's not important for freelance work, but it would make it easier to find a job here in Japan, which is something I aspire to do, but I'd be happy if I just sold one picture.
