I like hearing your thought process behind the choice of photo.
The colour in the pool is really striking.
I would really enjoy seeing some of the other shots you took downstream sometime, if you feel like sharing.😊

A woodland waterfall spills into a vivid green plunge pool at its base.  The left part of the drop goes straight down the cliff face and the lower right portion descends over some rock steps.

I appreciate all the support of my Vancouver Island work recently. Keeping with the theme, here’s another waterfall. A short hike and rope-assisted descent brought me face to face with this beauty.

Such a beautiful, quiet place.
The soft flow over the rocks and into that emerald pool feels like a hidden little world, so calm and peaceful. It's fascinating how the water can change the colour like that.
You have such a lovely way of seeing and conveying the feeling of these places.

A long row of closely placed red torii with black crossbeams forms a passage. The photo is taken from the outside of the gates, so the passage itself isn’t visible. On the right, lush green bushes and square stone markers can be seen.

The vermilion red of the torii feels like a gentle pulse through the landscape.
In Shinto, this colour is believed to protect and purify, a soft boundary between the visible world and what lies beyond.

I like this too, really beautiful shapes and tones, it’s a lovely shot.
The solitary tree on top gives a quiet sense of strength.

Thank you, it was a very beautiful experience despite a lot of visitors.

Actually we didn't feel anything at all. At the time of the quake we were in Shinjuku where reports say people could feel it, but we didn't feel anything.

Surrounded by a sea of azaleas at Nezu Jinja in Tokyo today. Gently soaking in the softness and colours of it all.🌸

Night view of Tokyo’s waterfront with the illuminated Rainbow Bridge stretching across the bay. City lights reflect in the dark water with a colourful skyline of buildings under a clear night sky. On the far right in the distance, Tokyo Tower rises softly lit up in red.

Tokyo nights… vibrant and alive,
yet always carrying a quiet, gentle smile.

A large bronze Buddha statue with an adult man standing in front for scale. The statue sits in a lotus position outdoors and shows its immense size compared to the person. The surface has a light green patina formed by aging.

Close-up of the Buddha’s face, showing calm eyes, a gentle expression, and long elongated earlobes. The hair is made of many small, rounded curls covering the head.

The Kamakura Daibutsu at Kotoku-in.
One for scale, one for stillness.
The long ears symbolize wisdom and the ability to truly listen.
A quiet reminder… to be more present, and listen with care. 🌿

River flowing through a cave beneath a smooth rock arch, with moss-covered boulders, hanging branches, and filtered light illuminating the forest beyond.

This was my first time photographing a river flowing through a cave! Once inside, I knew I wanted to feature the backlit moss and somehow I managed this in a single exposure despite the tricky light.

Amazing! You've captured it so beautifully!
I can almost imagine some elfs coming tip-toeing into the cave.

A clear blue‑green river curves through a forested mountain valley, with rocky banks and dense green trees on both sides. Sunlit hills rise in the background under a bright blue sky, creating a calm and expansive landscape.

Sitting on the train between Takayama and Nagoya, soaking in the most beautiful views… lush green mountains, blue-green water and a clear blue sky.
Just quietly enjoying this moment. 🌿

A vertical photograph of a dirt path receding into a misty forest. The path is flanked by dark tree trunks. At the end of the long path, a bright, low-angle sun is shining, creating distinct golden sunbeams that filter through the misty air and the upper tree canopy. The overall perspective is centered, leading the eye directly into the warm light source. The foliage above is illuminated in golden-green hues. The foreground path and low undergrowth are shadowed.

Once again, one of your photos gently captures how strength and stillness can exist side by side.
The smooth, flowing water against the rough rocks… just beautiful.

Evening at Hiejinja in Takayama.
No voices, no footsteps… alone with the stillness and the quiet calm.

Yes it's a lovely place, I'm glad I found it when strolling around the temple ground. And it felt so soothing with the soft sound of the water and the calm atmosphere.

A small waterfall cascades over moss‑covered rocks into a clear stream, leading toward a traditional Japanese covered bridge partly painted red. The stream is surrounded by tall trees and lush green vegetation on both sides. Soft sunlight filters through the leaves, creating a calm and peaceful atmosphere.

In a quiet little corner of Yahiko Shrine, near Niigata, I found this peaceful place.
The stillness slowly filled every part of me, and I felt I could have stayed there for a long, long time.

I just returned from spending a couple weeks on Vancouver Island and have new work to share. Of course, a lot of it is waterfalls. Here’s the first one to kick things off.

A very large red torii gate rises against a clear blue sky. One person is standing next to the left pillar to show its scale, and a car is driving along the road that passes underneath the gate.

The modern and the traditional, side by side, as if they’ve always belonged together.
Standing by the pillar for scale, I found myself reflecting on how effortlessly it all comes together here in Japan.⛩️

Red paper lanterns hanging in a row under branches covered with faintly pink cherry blossoms. You can glimpse the blue sky between the branches.
