Noren are traditional Japanese fabric dividers, hung between rooms, on walls, in doorways, or in windows.

Lion,Kyoto. by PAkDocK

Besides the Palace itself, another beautiful thing about the Imperial Palace in Kyoto is its temples and gardens.

Details, colours, moss…you can almost smell the centuries.
Love the bokeh of the Nokton.

Hakone, Kanagawa by PAkDocK

One of the best places to see the Fuji, we were lucky at the end of the day. Like in many other places you can feel how in Japan culture and nature are mixed in such a great way.
I love the old manual 50mm Nikkor on a small travel camera.
