Signs

Maybe instead of all the signs, they should move the shop closer to the street.

20,000 Years Ago

DSC_3589

This is bascially the entire museum at Chitei no Mori Museum in Tomizawa (地底の森 this means the Forest of the Floor of the Earth). When building, they found this petrified forest along with deer droppings, a campfire, and some pottery.

I liked it.

Flower @ 1.4

DSC_3562


This picture was taken with my lens wide-open at 1.4. I should have positioned myself so that light purple blob in the background was behind the flower.

Jomon no Mori

DSC_2826

I recently found this place in Sendai. It is a site where a Jomon-era village was found with many artifacts. I am looking forward to going there soon.

This is in Yamada, on the south side of Sendai next to Natori.

Nishi Park Kokeshi

Nishi Park Kokeshi

This is a kokeshi doll statue in Nishi Park (the statues are much shorter). The kokeshi doll is one of the symbols of Miyagi and all around the are you can find towns with kokeshi doll statues, and a few of them claim to be where they originated.

Postal Scooter

Postal Scooter

I couldn't resist taking a shot of this postal scooter I found while walking in downtown Sendai. I wish I had left a little more room at the bottom of the photo though.

I have been waiting for this kind of shot for a while, and the typhoon gave me an opportunity.

I thought that this was level when I took it. I should get a right-angle finder.
