Okinawa 07

Posted by Darren (Tokyo, Japan) on 16 January 2007 in Architecture.

Well I thought I'd finish on the lucky number 7.
This is the enterance to Shuri Castle in Okinawa. This castle was destroyed in WW2 but has been rebuilt. You can actually see the original foundations of the castle through a glass floor inside the castle.
Well I hope you liked the series and would be interested in which image you liked the most.

Cheers Daz

Oh...I really like this one Daz! Great lines, perspective, colours and textures, all under a brooding sky. Definitely my favorite of your Okinawa posts. Well done matey!

I had fun playing around with this one.

Maoya from Rolle, Switzerland

Yep good thing you went all the way to n°7 cause this is my favorite to. And there is that dull menacing sky again, as I said on the previous one it really give us the atmosphere of the place. Today we have more of it, plus the scary perspective!

@Maoya: Thanks Maoya. The sky is dull and menacing isn't it.

Great way to finish off the series. That's one helluva an entrance. I'd love to see that rebuilt castle. The glass floor sounds really cool.

Well mate, I'll post one more image tomorrow of the castle.

Great one! Looks terribly ancient, and as Maoya said, the dull menacing sky really adds to it.

@Damon Schreiber: Thanks Damon.

Great and diverse series mate. This shot is excellent, love the colours underneath the brooding sky. My favourite of the series would be Okinawa 04 - just love good ocean photography. This one here would be a close runner-up.

@Chris Sullivan: Thanks mate. I like the coastline shots too. Thanks for your visits mate.
