Friday Travel Photos from Motobu, Okinawa

Trees Must Have Been Today's Theme

 

 

 

Bamboo is what you'll get to see for today. And, maybe one bird photo.


 


While the Map It Okinawa Dude went uphill at some sacred site, I went in here.





Bamboo is an interesting subject so, I experimented with a few different compositions.





Crunching around on dry leaves, I woke up a few hundred mosquitoes.






Hundreds more images of various trees, will wait in my pending files.

This Kingfisher, down by the river, was the only bird photo I took today.

Trees, are great but, birds in the wild, you just can't beat.


If you ever get a chance to visit Motobu Peninsula, don't do what I did today.

Dagnabbit.  I left the bug repellant and 500mm lens at home !



RETRACTION STATEMENT:

 

The photos above were erroneously reported as taken on Motobu Peninsula.

Actually,  they came from the northern area of Okinawa off HWY58.
