Here are a few pictures I have taken while I was out and about.  I have been to Japan many times but I’m still amazed by what I see without trying to do anything special.

In case you can’t figure out what the pictures are of (click to enlarge):

A chestnut before you extricate it from it’s protective covering.

A a bunch of “Jizo” stone statues looking down on a mountain path from their lofty perch.

A guy out for a morning of fishing…with at triangle shaped net.
