In Tokyo Bay, there's a man-made island with a replica of the Statue of Liberty on it. It also has several other American style monuments: two huge malls, and a gigantic ferris wheel and a television station housed in a architectually facinating building. Naoko took Michelle and I there in June of 2004. I captured this picture in the landscaping near the statue. Thanks, Naoko and Yoshiaki!
What I like about this picture is... well, there are several things that endear this picture to me. Besides the fact that I like being in Japan, I really like the colors in this image: hues of blues blend with pink purples on a dark green background. Next, I love how the focus on the far left stamen is perfect and the blur on the petals blends the colors. You have to click on the picture for it to be displayed full size. Take a guess at what kind of flower this blossom belongs to. Today this hydrangea is my favorite. OK, otro dia otro foto.
