A fuzzy shot of our sweet little train. The entire Enoden Line, from Kamakura to Fujisawa, only takes about 35 or 40 minutes. And it wouldn't take nearly as long if it didn't snake through so many backyards, with barely a foot's clearance (or so it seems) between train and shrubbery. At one point, it … Continue reading Photo of the Day: Kamakura to Fujisawa
Photo of the Day: Bubble Inn
While blowing bubbles on the deck with Kaede, I noticed that our inn was reflected quite colourfully in the orbs of soap. It was harder than I thought to catch it with my iPad, but I did get a few so-so shots.
Photo of the Day: Spokes
A little black and white for a Sunday morning. This is a lotus leaf from Kosoku-ji. I really must get down to Hachimangu to see how its lotus are coming along.
Photo of the Day: More Hydrangeas
Like I said, everywhere I go, this is what I see.
Photo of the Day: Hydrangea Close-up
Everywhere I go, it's hydrangeas, hydrangeas and more hydrangeas.
Photo of the Day: A Little More Lotus
Kaede chose today's photo after much deliberation. She's stuck on the lotus blossoms.
Photo of the Day: Protected Fish
If you keep an eye on the ground as you walk down Yuigahama Dori (left side of the road if you're heading towards Hasedera, right if you're heading to Kamakura Station), you might just spot a few fish swimming behind some mesh. Three fish swim in and out of the unagiyasan (eel restaurant) under the … Continue reading Photo of the Day: Protected Fish
Photo of the Day: Bowl Full of Green
More of the garden at Kosoku-ji. The temple is overwhelmingly green right now.
Photo of the Day: Almost There
Another lotus photo, with more to come once the season really gets underway. This is, again, from Kosoku-ji.
Photo of the Day: Lotus Leaves
It's almost lotus season, and the early ones are already budding. These lotus leaves are from a small plant at Kosoku-ji, a small temple next to Hasedera. Kosoku-ji has an impressive garden, but not too many lotus flowers. For a pond-full, head over to Hachimangu, where hundreds upon hundreds of blossoms stretch up towards the … Continue reading Photo of the Day: Lotus Leaves
