Visit Hiroshima on business (and worked like mad all the time, just in case anyone here knows me :)), but did have a few moments to visit the city and surrounding. Japan is my favorite business travel on the planet.

All shots taken on an Olympus P&S and edited in (gasp) Google Picasa 3.

1) Golden Palace, Koyto

2) Biking through rice fields, Koyto

3) Bamboo Forest, Koyto

4) Just snapped this shot really fast (stranger). Not perfect, but cute and captures the emotion of that afternoon.

5) Hiroshima night life

7) Taxi driver, waiting, Hiroshima. Three cheers for the rule of thirds.

Thanks for the good words. Those moments really are magical.

Thank you! That forest was wild, like nothing I've ever seen.

Many thanks. IMO - On the outside looking in, a very inaccessible place, but with the right people as hosts during your visit, it is simply amazing.
