Well, I left this for far too long I'm afraid and I apologise for it. It always seemed that there was something else to do and the desktop is really getting slow...
Anyway, I thought I would post some select photos from my recent trip to Japan. I've got over 200 from this trip alone but I won't bore you with them all ;-)
Not much else to say really so I'll let you enjoy them. Basic info below each one or group.

Myself and a very nice chap who was quite willing to have a chat |

Underneath the 'palace'. All reconstructed but impressive none the less |
|
One of the gate towers on the east side |
|
One of the main gate and wall sections leading inside |
|
A superb long wall on the western side of the castle |
|
And finally, a rather embarrassing 'dance' group... |
Great photos. I'm doing a Japanese castle at the moment (in 6mm) so some great inspiration there.
