Step Out of the Light

Coming out of the tunnel of lights on Jozenji Street.

Messages in the Light

All down Jozenji were messages of hope written mostly by famous people.

Head in the Lights

For Tanabata this year, the boardwalk on Jozenji Street was decorated and they made a tunnel of lights. Unfortunately, the statue of this boy did not fit.

Jozenji Boardwalk

I have taken this statue's picture many times, but composition is hard with an iPod.

Two Men - Both Frozen

The statue is obviously frozen, but this man is also frozen in time now that I took his picture.

Brenizer Statue

I tried the Brenizer Method when I took this shot of this statue on Jozenji Street, but I have some practice to do with this method.

Alone in the City

This looks like a nice place for a lunch break.

Downtown Sendai Building Side

This is the Miyagi Kenmin Kaikan in downtown Sendai on Jozenji Dori. It has a theater inside where Cats is currently playing.

Lady of Jozenji

One of my more favorite shots of the famous Jozenji statue.

Standing in the Middle

One of those statues on Jozenji Street during the light up.

A Little More

This picture turned out a little too grainy and gray. It had to be like that since I wanted to see the people at the bottom. Next time I will expose for them.

1000 Points of Light

Jozenji in December.

The Intersection of Bansui and Jozenji

Another shot I used the Orton Effect on.

Statue and Stars

One of the many statues on Jozenji with the holiday lights in the background.

Jozenji Starlight Pageant in Black and White

The film gives an old-time look to the pageant.

Streaks

The last of this year's Jozenji Light Pageant pictures.

The Tunnel at the End of the Lights

After this I have one more of the Jozenji Light Pageant. The color on this one is a little off, and it may be a little dark, but I like how you can see down the entire boardwalk to the statue.

Light Painting

This is what happens when the shutter goes off on a long exposure and you move your camera around.

A Different Perspective

On this one I tried to add some foreground elements.

City at Night

This is one of my favorite Jozenji Street pictures.
