A walk to the Park in Modern Japan

Shot on my J5. No fancy tools:

- one lens, one memory card, one battery

- walking and public transport only

- light processing in NX-Studio, native Photo Editor for Nikon1 with updated Picture Controls.

With those details out of the way, off we go:

Another day in the city and what to do?

We think about going by car. There seems like many around.

There are buses and taxis of course to choose from as well.

The sky-rail doesn't really go where we want.

Since we are young and fit, we decide to walk.

We walk and walk and walk along the train tracks

Perhaps this is our last chance to grab a drink before we head out of town.

Eventually the city thins and we have to decide which way to go when we reach the Strawberry farm.

We get more into the countryside.

For a moment, at least in our dreams, we are lost in the forest.

We sit down for a moment in the sunshine to enjoy the moment.

This park has some details about where it is and a small amount of poetry for those who are into it.

We read some of the poetry first, well I just look at the pictures.

The plants talk to each other.

The birds do their things.

We head out for a look after sitting down and listening to the water.

Peer through to try to see what else is here.

Lot's to see as we walk around, before heading back.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yesterday it worked. Today it is not working. Windows is like that.

Nice! Regrettably true. Not a Haiku.

Oh really?

At this particular park, this farmhouse had the old type of Windows, before glass was generally available. They usually had shutters and worked for decades without need for Technical support. Tradesman could fix them for little money with hand tools. As anyone used to wooden Windows would know.

One of the Tatami rooms with Windows at the old Farmhouse, shot on the backup camera.

In Japan, they have ghost stories about people being trapped inside the glass of Windows.

It really freaky, and people in Western Cultures have lots of Stigma about talking about it as it is as scary as faaq (truth).

Please, don't be caught in Windows not working for too long.

If I misunderstand your issue completely, I apologise. I work in Portals, Stargates and Creative Content Production, not IT Technical support.
