Wow, stunning effort Claire. This is one of my favorites so far…
Thanks David!
I really like these photos. What kind of camera do you use?
Thank you Lady Caladium! I currently use a Nikon D300s. Enjoy your time in the gorgeous city of Kanazawa.
Stunning! I am always really big on the colour scheme in the photo, and I love warm colours and lights, so this album is my favourite so far, of all your works that I have seen. Beats the dinosaur museum!
Thanks Katya! Capturing the colour of the lanterns accurately was a real challenge.
