Sometimes, you just happen to be in the right place, right time. Shot with 14-24mm at 24mm(cropped). The lens is about 4cm away from them but they are obviously too busy to fly away.
I've been trying to capture lightning ever since I start taking pictures. Back in the film days, I must have wasted countless rolls of film just standing there shooting at the sky hoping it's the right moment.
God bless digital photography! no more wasting film.
So after my camera snapped away about 2000 photos, here are the results. Not fantastic yet but it's a start.
Did not spend too much time here this trip. Made a trip up mount Moiwa to see the sunset. Truely a sight to behold. The camera can only capture this much.
The famous ramen street.
Have to say I know next to nothing about this place. Just happen to drive by
If you ever drop by here. Don't miss the ramen village. Some of the best in the country are all here.House specialty and one of the best ramen I taste in Japan. Shio charsiew ramen. (Salt base soup)
This place is dotted with hot springs hotel. The place we stay has the only moor hot springs (onsen) (onsen containing bio organic algae) in Japan. Can't take photo in the hot spring so you have to just take my word that the hot spring area of the hotel is really grand and takes up like a quarter of the hotel.
We are also pleasantly surprise that we are given the biggest room of the entire hotel! No extra charges!!! Biggest room (more like apartment) in the entire trip. I know of many people in tokyo staying in apartment smaller than this!!!
Some quick transoformation and the same living space now serves dinner. Kaiseki Ryori to be precise. The wooden box is a steamer.
