西公園 Nishi Park
Nishi Park
Nov 25th, 2009
Finally, we ended up at Nishi (West) Park. Lying along the Hirosei River, the park is home to lots of events and festivals throughout the year. The leaves were in full colour. We avoided the bum singing all alone in the bushes and rode around the park. Nishi Park serves as a natural western boundry of downtown Sendai; beyond this are bridges and highways leading to universities and suburbs.
Fall Colours
Nov 1st, 2009
Been messing around with my “new” Nikon D40. I’ve got three lenses now, the 18-55mm kit lens that came with the camera, a 55-200mm VR telephoto lens for spying on people, and a 35mm prime lens for ninja photography. Went for a stroll around the Asaichi (Morning Market), Kokubuncho (the red-light/drinking district), and Nishi Koen (West Park) with the telephoto and the prime.
