About The light is so poor when I pass this spot between 6:00 and 6:30am that I came back nearer mid-day to capture it. Was pleased to find two girls fishing (although they wouldn't look up once I'd asked them if I could include them in my picture). I love the riot of greens. The pool, with its shrine, is supposed to have healing properties.

Wonderful shot! While the girls do attract one's eye immediately, the green is what I really love about this picture, since green is so common in nature, it's hard to capture it in a very lovely and interesting way like you did!

Nice composition Roger. Looks like a great place for autumn color.

Thank you, everybody, I am so glad that one of my favourte spots appeals to others through this photograph as it does to me who passes the real thing almost daily.

Bertram; it is not that the Widelux lens is particularly good, it is that in a swing-lens camera, only a narrow strip of film is exposed at any one moment, effectively using only a narrow central strip of the lens, so the proportion of aberration and distortion in the image is much, much less than when the whole area of the lens is used. I don't know if that is clear. E-mail me privately if you'd like to go into this more deeply.

By the way, the light was not poor when I took the picture at mid-day. But it is always poor when I pass by in the early morning. Sorry that wasn't clear.

Looks so very japanese ! The fine rendering of the details make it. The widelux lens seems to be a real cracker.

very fine composed: like the old japanese prints and paintings, poor light or not
:)
also the two girl combine excellently with your panorama. could you indicate, which shrine, please?
I'm sure, it has healing properties, evenb your picture of it is calming and soothing
