Tour Manager, amateur photographer, traveller. All photos my own. I love trees, birds, clouds, skies & mountains… and my Dachshund.
Beneath the high mound
two trees lean with quiet grace—
no wind yet they bow,
teaching me to stand gently
as silence forms the mountain. #japan #zen #photography #zengarden

The artist, Yayoi Kusama has a long-standing personal and artistic connection to pumpkins, which she describes as comforting, humorous, and spiritual.

The second photo is my attempt at “art” and it’s called “Woman with Pumpkin”. #photography #photo #japan

This area was part of the Tōkaidō, the ancient highway connecting Tokyo (then Edo) with Kyoto during the Edo period.

Hundreds of towering cryptomeria (Japanese cedar) trees, were planted to protect travellers, over 400 years ago. It was truly humbling. #photo #japan

Will there be an investigation? Will there be any consequences? Will anyone lose their job? Will anyone go to jail?
