The Golden Hook Japan

Posted on August 28, 2009 by Jim Atwood in Flickr Japan | Comments

The Hook is another interesting kanji character in calligraphy form found often around temples and shrines in Japan. I like the color contrast and scratchy feel of the photo.

Pigeon in Grunge Japan

Posted on August 20, 2009 by Jim Atwood in Flickr Japan | Comments

These birds are abundant in Japan and quite frankly they bother me more than I enjoy them. They are extremely aggressive when you have food around and I think they come much too close to kids and me sometimes. With that said, they occasionally make for some interesting subjects and I particularly liked this shot with the grunge and off color background.

I moved the camera a bit to get a motion blur effect. The background is a blue plastic tarp with holes in it. There is also a second layer of rope in the background. I particularly like the blue tones and the slight 3D feel of the photograph.

Kanji Japan is a photography collection of Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji that make up the Japanese writing system. I find these writing characters to be an artform in itself and are a joy to photograph. Images were taken by Jim Atwood Photography at http://www.jimatwood.net in Nagoya, Tokyo, Yokohama, and Nagano Japan.
