Tree | Azumino, Nagano by jamesjustin on Flickr.

After a company organized volunteer event on Saturday, I had the chance to spend a few hours taking photos of the Azumino area.
A lone tree in between the fields. There were actually quite a few visitors walking around this area as it is the location for a daily 15 min. NHK TV drama program. You can’t see it here, but a few old huts and a small water were also recreated for the program.
Mountains | Matsumoto Castle by jamesjustin on Flickr.

Stopped by Matsumoto Castle for a few minutes early on Saturday morning. I had driven up to Matsumoto the night before and got over to the castle fairly early (around 5:30am). It was a good time to be there (no other people to speak of) and the light was fairly nice, though as the inner grounds weren’t open yet I could only get around to 2 of the 4 sides. I ended up with a lot of back or side lit shots because of this but I’m still happy with what I got. After visiting so many times of the years I’m happy I finally have a few pictures of this place that are my own.
