Trail on a mountain above Hakone, Japan

Since so many people have favorited this, let me give a bit of history about this deviation.

I took this photo while my friend and I were hiking in Japan. The particular trail we chose was actually the remains of an old stone road to a mountain fortress of one of the old samurai-era rulers. Our goal was originally to find the ruins of that fortress, but we never succeeded. The trip was so beautiful and surreal it didn't matter to us much that we never found them, however.

I saw yours and I thought it looked... familiar.

This was from a military training island in Singapore.

sometimes places are so beautiful that it makes a photographers job incredibly easier - it looks like your trip to japan was filled with those moments :)

i'm so glad you're living life to the full.

Yooooooou!

How are you doing?! Are you still in China or what? Speaking of living life to the fullest! Man, we need to chat or something :-D

I miss Japan so much, but it really was such a great experience! I was really blessed that God has given me eyes to notice special beauty of what's there in the every day. It's such a great way of looking at the creation!

You're absolutely right, my job is almost done for me already, all I have to do is get shutter speed and focus right. :-)

Wow, I've been back from China for what feels like a lifetime now. A whole year. Nope, I've got one more year of college left (seeing as the whole oriental experience put me back curriculum-wise) and I'm doing my internship in Portland, OR. One month left! Do you think the term "Media Arts Intern" suits me well? I like it.

Aw, Endy, I miss youuuuu. Is your family still going out to Sunset Beach these days? What are you doing with yourself now?

having a proper look through your gallery now, im at work, haha avoiding work. I love this shot though, the leading line in it is great, i feel like im being drawn up this path. Its beautifully framed, i like the light in the distance as well, its a stunning shot of nature at its best man. Well done

Thank you very much! I totally reworked the lighting on this one last night, and I'm liking how it's turned out, too! I'm thinking I may very well go back through almost each and every one of my photos I've taken recently and rework all of them too so long as I keep liking the results!
