Title: Scenes from Japan - Kamakura
Post by: Sir Pompously on December 30, 2007, 08:17:10 PM
As the board was down when I was compiling this collection, I will show you part 3 (I think) of my trip to Japan. This time being a seaside town of Kamakura, which is about 50km south of Tokyo on the Shonan-Shinjuku line and the Sobu Line (Rapid Service) with JR.

I think someone is employing the "If I can't see it, it is not there" policy. If you don't look at your feet the seas of Japan are beautiful!

Oh and I did not notice that there was an off topic photography forum. Whoever gets to read this first gets the grand pleasure of moving it!

Good photos, and it's such a nice snapshot of such a grand country.

Interesting to see a area outside of the city, with relativety low density housing, I like it, it's very nice.

Great photos Todd, keep them coming!

At first I thought that you took that [first] pic in Ireland until I saw the traffic lights are side-ways not up and down. [I've been to Ireland and the little towns look very similar to your pic.] Great pix, Todd
