Hiragana Practise

Perth, Australia

A couple of months ago I completed the section on Hiragana in “A Guide to Learning Hiragana & Katakana” by Kenneth G. Henshall with Tesuo Takagaki. Since I've finished the Hiragana section I've been practising writing the Hiragana alphabet over and over. In this photo is some my practising.
Now I'm on to learning the Katakana and I'm up to the 5th character of the that alphabet. Maybe once I've learnt a few more I'll post a picture of my Katakana writing.

Nice shot! James, when I started to learn kana, I used Japanese children exercise books, worked well and quite yasui! :-) I follow your mission with great interest. Wish you both success with it and I might learn something from it for next year.

As Paulo said... wonderful dof and light.
Another thing to mention would be the texture...
Focused characters seem to be alive and jumping out of the papper.
