Central Nagoya Castle
Posted on April 28, 2008 by Jim Atwood in Flickr Japan | Comments
Central Nagoya Castle is a variation of a previous shot I posted below but on a different side of the path. Again the sky was pretty white that day but I like how it contrasts with the color on the Castle roof. The photo is left with a sort of vintage feel which I like and hopefully adds to the historical aspect of the scene. I must mention that visiting Nagoya Castle on a very hot humid day could be brutal. Take lots of water and hat if you plan to visit here in August. It was a pretty cool day when I visited, but I still felt it was pretty hot in the area. Have fun!
Nagoya Green

Nagoya Green is an attempt to capture the beautiful spring colors that were apearing around the Nagoya Castle grounds. As mentioned earlier, many of the flowers and shrubs I missed and so lots of things were withering, but this view I thought was very colorful and rich with green. This sort of setting was found all around the Castle grounds.
Sunshine Nagoya

Sunshine Nagoya was found on a dirty street corner at the side of a busy intersection. It’s amazing what you find in unlikely areas. With everyone all around I got down on my knees as low as possible and snapped this little guy up as close with my 17-55mm. As I mentioned on some other photos, I am not a big flower buff, but I do like to photograph those that I think really stand out. It was a beautiful sunny day when I visited Nagoya and this flower has become a symbol of that visit for me.

I thought this was a cool window shot taken of a building in downtown Nagano city. I was really working the narrow back alleys and finding some really interesting stuff. I also like the blue frames on this photo.
