In the shot above, you can see a lady in a kimono slightly left of center, holding up her cell phone to photograph the red leaves. She's the one in this shot from yesterday. I tried to include her in my pictures while she was taking pictures, because generally speaking, I like the kimono. I realize now, though, that you can't really see the kimono in the closer shots (some taken at 1/20th of a sec handheld as ISO 6400!)...

Hello Jeffry,
Congratulations to the very beautiful pictures.
I like these pictures with the wonderful colors of autumn leaves.
I particularly liked the children in colorful kimonos.
I think I once I will go to Japan, too.

I work with the same camera and the same lens. It is a fantastic device.

Greetings from Alex (schimmi),

Hi!

Kind of strange – my previous comment disappeared – was it deleted?

Anyway – just pointing out that this post refers to a non-existing post – “How I Spent My Saturday in Kyoto” and links are broken.

I like this site and would be interested to see the missing post!

Thanks,
Dmitry

Thanks Dmitry, I replied here (but in short: thanks!!!!) —Jeffrey
