20,000 Years Ago

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.

The Ginko

Ginko trees are all around Sendai. I think there are more here than in Tokyo, even though Tokyo's symbol is the ginko leaf.

Down by the Falls

The water was higher than I have seen it down by the base of Akiu Waterfall. The rocks where I usually sit were covered by water.

Neighborhood Tulip

On my way to the bus stop, I pass by all my neighbors' flower gardens. It makes for a nicer walk.

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.
