Minoh
Temple details, autumn colour, and quiet walking paths north of Osaka.
Chapter One
Japan
Japan sits at the centre of this archive — family, memory, travel, and the quiet precision of streets, temples, mountains and ordinary details.
These pages are less about major landmarks and more about small observations: timber, stone, light, weather, and the feeling of moving slowly through familiar places.
Blossom held briefly in light, before it disappears.
Japan sets
Yoshino New Year
A cold New Year's Day in the mountains of Nara.
Arashiyama
Early spring, a path opening under blossom and light.
Himeji
A return to Himeji across winter and spring, from quiet structure to cherry blossom crowds.
Tennoji
Smoke, light, and a brief human pause held inside the temple grounds.
Ginkaku-ji
Ginkakuji before the crowds arrived — a walk through the garden and the canal path that leads to it, when the light was still low and the place was mostly quiet.
Wakayama
Cherry blossom arriving ahead of the main Kansai season. Wakayama's milder coastal climate allows places like Kimiidera to flower earlier than Kyoto or Nara.
Selected Japan work
A few favourite frames from Japan — colour, night, water, and temple detail.
