This is certainly a surprise from Japan . . but it is a superb image, too, and perfectly presented.

Luna from Osaka, Japan

Hello Nicole!
Thanks for your kind comment and watch! I wonder what your town's like? If you're ever in Osaka City, stop on by and say hi! ^_^

@Luna: Well for certain my town is a lot different than Osaka! But I've grown to love it's small town appeal. ;D Thanks for the Osaka invite! In return if you ever need to get out for a taste of the inaka life, you're welcome here ;D

Daryl Johnson from Farnham, United Kingdom

Hottori? Do you mean Tottori...?

Minus the umbrella, reminds me of Star Wars...

@Daryl Johnson: Haha! Whoops... you are completely right! Tottori is a prefecture... Hottori is someone I work with ;P Thanks for the fix!

Dawn from Maryland, United States

Great landscape shot. Perfect!

@Dawn: Thanks so much!

Howard F. from South Pasadena, Calif., United States

I like the kid in the distance standing still, great strong posture, like he's not afraid of anything. Great minimal shot.

@Howard F.: Good eye, I always concentrate on the woman with the umbrella and never really thought about the boy in the distance.

akarui from Kagoshima, Japan

Sure we easily think about a desert in Africa... Beautiful picture.
I know redbubble web site since many months and I would be interested to know if you sell any pictures this way?

16 Jun 2009 12:26am

@akarui: No luck so far on the redbubble account, but I'm still holding out hope! ;D Let me know as well if you know of any better sites to sell photos!

GJC from Kyoto (京都), Japan

What a striking image. Very simple and elegant.

@GJC: You flatter me ;D

Kenton from Calgary, Canada

Wow, I had no idea there were sand dunes in Japan. Wonderful shot with great contrasts.

@Kenton: Yeah, it's a bit hard to believe isn't it? I had a hard time imagining it, even when I was standing in front of it. ;D There were camel rides and everything. A bit surreal.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

This is fantastic! Really want to visit this place someday.

17 Jun 2009 10:20am

@Stu: It takes forever and a day to get there seeing as the shinkansen can only get you as far as Himeji (if I remember correctly) but at least you'll have a head start leaving from Kyoto. It's defiently worth the visit. ;D
