Nikko Photowalk

Have just come back from a full day at Nikko with +Jeff Austin , +Agustin Rafael Reyes , and +adithya anand . Some great pictures were taken, and I got to see parts of Nikko I had never been to. I'll be slowly adding to this album over the next few days, but for now I need to sleep since we got up at around 03:30 this morning to beat the crowds to Nikko!

Oyasumi all 🙂

    Wow, got up around 3:30 in the morning? Hope you didn't get stuck in traffic…;) For me I gave up going to Chuzenji-ko, so I envy you could get there and take such a great shot!

    Wow! this is so beautiful – I love the composition. What is the wooden structure? My curiosity is piqued as I look at the wood posts stretching out in the lake with the rocks in between. The blues and greens of the lake with the ripples and shadows is so tranquil. I never visited Nikko while we were living in Japan, but at a Tokyo shrine sale picked up a wooden plaque from there that has a large sleeping cat and a temple (It's now hanging in our hallway here in UB!). Now whenever I look at it, I'll think of this scene.

    Thanks for the +1's and shares +Darren Kowitt , +Jennifer Boesch Fricke , +susan jaramillo!

    +Mark Esguerra , thanks, I'll definitely put up more soon, and I know you'll see more great stuff from the others as well 🙂

    Thanks +Rich Grundy and +Alejandro LF !

    +Yumi Shoji , yes it was a little crazy to get up that early – I guess that's the best thing about going with others, you can encourage each other to be a little crazy 😉

    Thanks +Joanne Yu , definitely wish you could have come too, but I hope you had a relaxing time with hubs yesterday – maybe next time just drag him along too – he could be your tripod carrier 😉

    +Peggy M , it was some kind of dilapidated pier – I've seen lots of cool dock/pier shots on G+, and so I went over to see what I could get. Even I was surprised at how well it turned out! Definitely one of those instances where you find that you can discover something new, even in places you've been to before. 🙂

    +Hidetaka Onoyama Arigato! (and ohayo) 🙂 I'll be out for most of the day, but I'll put more shots up as soon as I can!

    Amazed you were able to process an image so quickly, and do such a great job with it. You took your time shooting it and that shines through on your final image. Great work looking forward to more Jeff!

    Thanks +Jeff Austin – I wouldn't have been able to take this picture if you hadn't driven us all there to begin with!

    It was also one of those lucky shots that needed very little post-processing – not quite as fast as Alfie's 10 min rule, but I think I was done in about 15-20mins max 🙂

    And thanks +Agustin Rafael Reyes – looking forward to your shots too!! 😀

    Thanks +Ontoshiki Vun ! Hope you get a chance to go there, though I know it's tough finding the time to go to all the places you want to…

    I've actually never been to Osaka despite 10 years in JP – and this year was my first time to Nikko! :p
