Another guess at the colour of my friend's maple tree. I don't think any of these are really right, though they're all better than the original. I remember saying that it was a sort of rust colour, yet quite red. I've replaced this one too.

Weather was not so promising yesterday.

It was so cold when i was in Arashiyama.

Maybe it is near to mountain? So the weather is colder?

I am not so sure.

 

It took me about an hour to reach the destination.

Maybe due to the cold weather, my mind also frozen.

I missed the last bus to go back hotel.

:(

So, i spent extra money to take JR railway then change subway and then took bus to go back.

As long i can go back to hotel safely, i do not mind to spent extra.

When i about to get off from the bus, i realized i had lost my transportation's ticket.

The ticket that I have paid for 2 full days transportation to visit around kyoto.

:~~~(

Sometimes, things just aren't like what we expected.

I am alright anyway and back hotel safely in the end.

 

Some people will wonder why i enjoy backpack especially travel alone.

I think learn to solve problem is one thing i enjoy during the trip.

It is not about the "excitement" i enjoy but you must really calm down your mind to think to how to solve the problem.

Last but not least, surprise and many surprises i meet every time when i travel alone.

The surprises definitely not less than the maple leaves that show in the picture.

 

It is cold now, i think it is around 10 degree.

I am going to sleep now.

Tomorrow is my last day in Kyoto, i am going to say bye bye here.

I fall in love with this place, people here and also the culture.

People here is not only friendly but they are really very helpful, i get a lot of helps from them when i asked for directions.

I want to say " Thank you" to this country and the people here.

 

I Love Kyoto :) Muaks.

 

听说周日的京都会是人山人海的,所以为了避免京都市内的拥挤,我把今天的行程编排到郊外去。

选择到郊外的岚山,是因为这里有山,枫叶和小溪,我猜想这应该是拍摄枫叶的好地点。

 

昨晚临睡前已经上网瞄了瞄气象局的网站。

再说也不是晴朗的天气,但也不是下雨天,所以还是决定去的岚山。

况且也买“京都観光二日乗車券”,不能白白地让它浪费。

早上起床后,就赶快探头出去看看老天爷的脸色,它给我阴霾的样子。:(

 

一路上,很冷。

当我靠近岚山的时候,变得更冷。可能是靠山的关系再加上迎面而来的风?

我的手掌一直往袋子里塞。糟糕,这样下去待会儿怎样拍啊。

所以整个摄影过程,我都是默默的忍受寒冷中度过。

往好的方面想,这不就是摄影的乐趣吗?

从中作乐在孤单旅游时是必备的。哈。。。

 

不晓得是不是太冷的关系,把我的头脑和思想也一概给冰封了起来。

我竟然错过最后一趟巴士。

我不相信。

我回去刚才的咖啡厅,Mister donuts ミスタドナツ ,找个服务员查问,同样的结果出现。

 

没办法,只好搭JR, 换地铁,再转巴士回住处。

只要平安回去就好,我也不介意多花搭JR 的费用,。

当下巴士的时侯,我竟然发现那张已付费的京都観光二日乗車券不见了。

呜呜。。。

这当然不是我期望发生的,但是一旦发生,就只好学习接受和面对。

最后也顺利回到住所。

 

独自旅行本来就会遇到很都问题,但我就是喜欢。

我喜欢旅行时带来的新挑战,尤其想挑战自己那的快生锈的应变能力。:P

每天都在紧凑的生活节奏中度过,旅行让我有更大空间和时间去做思考。

有人说我变慢了,我倒过来想,是不是你太快了。

冷静下来做思考的人总会利用时间去往事情的另一面着想,那不好吗?

当然,我更享受独自旅行上路带来一连串的惊喜。

 

晚上的天气还是一样的冷。

大约只有十度而已。

冷得把我睏了。

明天是我在京都逗留的最后一天,我要向京都说拜拜啦。

再见了,京都。

晚安。

 

It's time for my maple tree to feed this squirrel.

 

And the helicopter seeds have been falling like rain.

 

So feed this squirrel my maple tree does!!

Macro of a cluster of Maple leaves taken looking up through the leaf canopy. I like the shape and patterns of the leaves, their luminous quality with the light behind them, and the yellow green light they cast around me. Tweaked the lighting levels and saturated the colours in Elements

Arashiyama, Kyoto, Japan

These little flowers only lasted about a day. I had never really noticed them before because they dry up and fall so quickly.

A macro shot of our Japanese Maple. It is beautiful this time of year.

Some of us call it autumn

and others call it God.

Pretty much sooc (except for basic raw edits) -- I just loved the soft light on these leaves. You'd have no idea this was the middle of the day.
