Pebbles of Iwakuni

Posted by meemax under Objects
Riverside Pebbles

These pebbles were shot just below the famous Iwakuni Kintai-kyou bridge. They are only ordinary pebbles but still pretty to look at as they contribute to the landscape of the river.

Read about Iwakuni and its bridge here.

Magic Cubic Aquarium

Magic Blue Cube

This cube is supposed to be some bizarre aquarium. The white spots and shapes are the fish. They float around and swim aroun like normal fish do, except when you touch the cube. They will then swim to that place and wiggle around in that area until you let go of the cube.

Neat huh? The cube become other colors as well.

You can find this cube by the JR Shinjuku west exit between the Keio mall and the Odakyu mall.

Hamamatsu Summer Sunset

Hamamatsu Summer Sunset

This was on the turtle sanctuary of the Hamamatsu beach, where endangered loggerhead turtles can safely lay their eggs. Today was one of the days the newly-hatched turtles were released to sea. We got to release them and they were soooo cute.

The eggs will hatch just before the sun sets. The sunset was beautiful. Even just using a phone camera, this beauty captured.

Reflecting a Good Day

A building in Nishi-Shinjuku

A great reflection of the blue sky. This group of buildings was a project of projecting or converting into a much more modern Nishi-Shinjuku. (Well, not really a project, more of a trend.)

While Nishi-Shinjuku, as a part of Shinjuku, is also brimming with salarymen and companies, it’s not exactly the prettiest part of Shinjuku. LOL!

You can’t see it here, but the building I was standing on is an old gray business building with pebbled finish. Still part of the Nishi-Shinjuku of before.

Orange Tree

Outline of a Tree

Didn’t really like shooting the sunset with buildings’ silhouette. This was shot just below a hill to hide the modern scenery. Hehe.
