I was having lunch at the Prince Hotel with its great view when I suddenly wanted to visit the park right in front, so the moment I finished eating, off I went. Every photo here was taken with the 77mm. Why? B…
The highlight of cherry blossom viewing is the night. I remember going out to Yeouido around blossom time last year to take pictures too.. Expecting the same kind of thing in Japan.. I went to Yoyogi Park. I s…

This park is called Harbor View Park (Minato-no-Mieru-Oka Park). Cross a bridge from Chinatown and you reach Motomachi, the designer-brand shopping street, and at the far end of Motomachi there’s a hill …
This is Yokohama Chinatown. I’ve been to Kobe’s Chinatown once before, but Yokohama Chinatown is a good two or three times bigger than Kobe’s. It was the weekend, so it was packed with people…
