I have some images from Shi Shi., but it's too late to have it posted. You can never predict weather on the coast. It's finicky. I suggest rubber boots for the stretch of the trail between Makah Reservation and Shi Shi. It's 5 miles of mud even in the summer.
Thank you.This forest is rather shallow. Need to catch the light at the right time; otherwise, too early, it is drab; too late, the light has bleached everything.
Thank you. The rooftop is always an interesting place, especially when the sky turns misty, and the light becomes subdue. On the left is the escalator.
Thank you. It is scary, when I look at the noise on the white tables; no noise reduction could make a dent. May be shooting at ISO3200, this is something unavoidable and must be taken into account.
Thank you. The top, small placard proclaims that the temple teaches the correct doctrine. They all do. The bottom placard, proclaims that it holds a Buddha relic. For me, I just tried to get sharpness and correct exposure.
Thank you. This cafe caters to parties; there are outdoor/indoor playgrounds. First thing that struck me was the high contrast between outdoor and indoor; second thing was the wooden horse staring at the same game I was staring at. I just wanted to get all that.
Thank you. Our Botanic Garden is a World Heritage Site. It is a pleasant, non-commercial place; there are no peddlers of souvenirs, no postcard shops.
But, it does require an army of workers (these are from India) to keep the Garden in pristine conditions.
Blossoms - last year in March. I hope for the same this year, but I have some
doubts, because last year was not a typical one. And just today, snow came down. Photo was made with SL and 24/90.
Thank you. Croc shoes had been once popular with kids. After a few incidents of croc shoes being caught on the escalators, causing injuries to the feet, its popularity faded. This shop has since closed.
Thank you. I was sitting in my car at a busy intersection. The light was turning green, when I looked up and saw this rather interesting sight. Snapped a shot in a hurry.
