Spare a Dime Japan

A popular tourist attraction at Zenkoji Temple is this little fellow. I go there a lot, but finally grabbed a shot of this little statue. It’s quite colorful and always looking for a handout ..LOL

Tug O War depicts a temple grounds worker setting up for an event in Zenkoji, Nagano City, Japan.

Split Ends Japan

This looks like a sword on the left is spliting the stem in two. I’m a big fan of green and I thought this had some nice shades of green. The lines and "peach fuzz" on the stem are added textures that I liked.

Color Trio Japan

Just loved the trio of colors in the background. Would have loved to have a healthy flower in the foreground, but it still came out pretty good. In fact, from top to bottom there seems to be a life progression going on of some sort.

Yellow Fan-Tastic

Saw this guy out in the middle of nowhere, so I thought I would take a photograph and make him a star. The petals of the flower also reminded of a fan which I could of used on this particularly extremely hot summer day in Nagano.

Nagoya Breeze

Nagoya Breeze is a shot taken from a low position upwards under this tree. There was a nice Spring breeze and it was nice because I the Nagoya Castle grounds can get really hot with very little shade. Nagoya Castle is probably not the best place to visit in July or August with the hot sun beating down and the humidity.
