Tokyo, Japan

No one has posted to this post in a while. I thought I would resurrect it because I finally downloaded my Japan photos from my dead laptop.

I only have 12,000 more photos of Japan to share.

A few from Rumoi, Hokkaido (December 2014). I will be heading back to that area later this month for a couple of weeks to take photos... The wind off the sea to the west of Japan can be quite cold...

Thanks for the kind words and link to photos from Rumoi, Hokkaido that were taken in the winter of 2014-15.

Winter of 2015-16: 大雪山国立公園 (Daisetsuzan National Park - Hokkaido) is the largest national park in Japan at 2,267.64 sq.km, the "great snowy mountains national park" includes 16 peaks over 2,000 meters as well as 旭岳 (Asahidake - 2,290 meters) the highest peak in Hokkaido. My target was to view, not climb 黒岳 (Kurodake - 1,984 meters)... In the third photo (taken from Level 7) skiers and boarders can be seen walking to the peak of Kurodake.

Winter of 2016-17: 青森県 (Aomori Prefecture) is the northern most prefecture in the Tōhoku Region of Honshu and faces Hokkaido across the 津軽海峡 (Tsugaru Strait). Some photos from the city of 弘前市 (Hirosaki-shi) where you can find 弘前城 (Hirosaki Castle) originally built in 1611... the tower is one of only 12 in all of Japan. We can see Hirosaki Castle with Mt. Iwaki in the background and a photo of Yoshi ta-Bashi (bridge) over the inner moat.

Is that the late Tom Abrahamsson with the walking stick in the photo on posting number 141? I notice how the girl beside him is stepping out to walk around him and she gives a great smile to the camera, to say nothing of the guy in the back with his fingers up and the camera too!
There is a lot going on in that photograph, a lot.

Just read and viewed all this thread and the variety of images in Tokyo is fantastic - all of life is there. The RFF contributors excelled on this thread.
 
That is Tom A in the frame during his visit to Tokyo last year.

I've spent two years there. Now I'm in Osaka. How I enjoyed walking Tokyo aimlessly!

Here are a few from 2013 I think. Cheap film and bad scans, but that was part of the fun. Buying some 24-exposures Fuji 400 at a local shop (tho the b/w is XP-2 and the indoor shot is Fuji Natura 1600), losing myself around the neighbourhood taking pictures, dropping the film at a one-hour lab while having a coffee and getting my loot back before heading home.

You really have to talk the one-hour lab guy into developping XP-2 by the way. While it's C-41, most are really uncomfortable dealing with anything but Fuji.
