Winter days, Lake Biwa Japan

Walking on a cold brisk winter day in the north Lake Biwa area. For those of us that travel and love photography, a bag becomes like a faithful partner as the miles pile on.

Winter travel in Hokkaido

A moment of solitude brought on by winter’s cold white haze. The railway platform mostly abandoned of life becomes a quiet respite clearing the mind of noise. Only the consistent sound of the snow falling with a slight howl of the wind breaks the stillness. The sound is that of some massive godlike creature exhaling its chilling breath upon the area.
