Caleb's pictures of beautiful Rural Japan

Aha! Finally the pictures I promised.

These were all taken by Caleb House, a JET participant in his first year of ALT (Assistance Language Teacher). They are are only a fraction of the pics he has, but they pretty much capture the essence of them. He is stationed in the Kyoto prefecture, close to Osaka. But, as you can plainly see, not so close that he is short of beautiful landscapes of bamboo and deciduous forests :) (especially beautiful in these pictures due to Autumn).

Thank you, Caleb, for giving me permission to share your pictures.

If anyone would like to see any more of this Japan area, go to www.youtube.com and channel search for 'extravpenguin' to reach Caleb's profile. His video footage is just as thorough and well presented as his photography.

These pics all make me want to go rural when going to Japan....and you?







The pictures above and below are of Green tea fields. Yum! Green tea! :) Love the symmetry of the perfect lines.
