Higashiyama and Beyond

Nikon FM2 / Fuji Reala 100 [Expired 05/2005]

We had a jolly nice time on this day. We walked from our little flat on the edge of Higashiyama to the Kamo River and then onto Yasaka Shrine, Chion-In, Shoren-In Monzeki Temple, Kodai-Ji, Zenkojido Temple and Kiyumizu-Dera.

We walked back through some backstreets in a little district near Yazaka Shrine where I was taking pitchas on a camera that turned out to be broken..

Alone in Kyoto

Hasselblad 500 C/M / Fuji Pro 800Z

The title of this post isn’t just a casual reference to a beautiful yet sloppy film that’s littered with lazy stereotypes. I was actually alone in Kyoto.

Chu Chu was tired and all puffed out and didn’t want to venture out first thing in the morning but it was such a beautiful day I didn’t want to miss a single second of it.

The Edge of Higashiyama

Our first full day in Kyoto. We stayed literally on the edge of Higashiyama – where the Kamo River intersects Sanjo Dori in a tiny flat about 5 mins from Sanjo Station. This is entirely insignificant fact gave me the idea for the amazingly inventive title. It was very cool area to stay in anyway.

These pitchas were taken on and around Sanjō Ōhashi, one of many bridges that spans the Kamo River. The friendly peoples busting some shapes for me on the banks of the river in the last photo appeared to be practising flash-mobbing.
