Japan Photography thread
 

Since it's looking more and more likely that most of us won't be able to enter Jpn anytime soon, let's celebrate Jpn by sharing favorite travel photos of Jpn.

I realize there's a Travel Photography section on FT, but I figured this is the best place for Jpn photos.
I'd suggest keeping the photo file size reasonably small to prevent slow upload times.

Mod: I did read through FT posting rules regarding photos, but feel free to intervene if there's anything about this thread that's not compliant.

And from somewhere in the middle, Mt Fuji from the bridge connecting Enoshima to the mainland:

The opposite shore with the windmills... could that be Russia? (seems too close on picture, though)

Raging bull

Not quite, it's the view to the east towards Cape Soya rather than north towards Russia. I couldn't see Russia when I was there, even through a long zoom lens.
