Sagunt is a samll quiet town, close to Valencia, Spain

Billy · 10-14-2007, 06:40 AM

The houses were reconstructed in the neoteric and detroyed.

There are lots of similar narrow streets in Spain. Actually, it is unconvenient to live in the uphill houses. I saw that one old lady can't breathe after shopping to home. Most people moved to the high buildings on the plat ground. Some houses are with the label "Se Venta" (For sale).

Hey Billy, welcome back!
We sending you Christmas cards again this year? Warn me in plenty of time if we are, I didn't keep your address.

I love Valencia, but your shots a testament to the fact you can find the unfamiliar in (what to me is) familiar. It's a talent.

Hi Billy. Business or pleasure trip?

Billy · 10-14-2007, 02:12 PM

I will stay here for several months. Please drop me a line if you come to Spain.

I guess that I will have a Chrsitmas in Europe this year. I am not sure that I can recieve your cards here if oyu send me. I will give you a message soon.
Would anyone like take me to your family for a xmas? heehee

I have lots of photos from my trips but the problem is that I cant access internet in my room. Try to post here as much as I can.

Sundae · 10-14-2007, 03:07 PM

You'd be more than welcome to ours for Christmas!
(seriously)

The challenge in taking photos in Japanese cities is getting far enough away from something to get it in shot. Often the best way is to find your subject reflected in something else.
This first one is in Nagoya:

This one is in Tokyo:

The other option is to pay to go to the top of something very tall. This was taken from the towers in the shot above. I can't help wondering what's going to happen here when the next "big one" hits Tokyo...

I escaped from the friendly jokes to Hangzhou for one day. The Xihu -- West Lake was very beautiful in the spring. I will come back one day.

White blossoms make the peak green leavies younger.

Billy · 04-05-2008, 04:12 AM

Red blossoms match the green leavies
The wild flowers alao tried to show their beauty.

When the snow melts, the spring comes to us. It doesn’t snow often in the South China except for last winter. We see that the Spring comes to our eyes when the flowers bloom.

Now it is out super star – the West Lake. Hangzhou is beautiful for the West Lake and around hills.
