Japan 20

Purple Eared Pooch


Field trip to Sensō-ji (a Buddhist temple) in Asakusa area of Tokyo


Better view of multi-color cherry blossoms at Aunt Junko's House.
The color is a little distorted. It was so overcast, I brightened it a bit.

 
not a great pic, but I love the look on my wife's face

  1. Did he Cut One?

    LOL--she is giving him the evil eye!

    snicker--- I love the regimental look of the class on the field trip--it even looks as if all the shoes are the same brand--expensive Nike's/Adidas somethings!

    As always...EXCELLENT!

  4. LOL - That was a dog that was waiting for his owner to come out of the store. We had to get a shot of that. Where else would someone have a purple eared dog, just for fun!!!
