Hokkaido

I have been told that the fish windsocks indicate that there are boys in the household.

This picture is in the Hokkaido gallery as well as the Image by chance gallery.

This is a combination of 3 conversions of the same raw file. Maybe
I should give up trying to get shots including the sun - there's
usually a lot of hard work needed in pp to get a reasonable result.

Interesting - thanks for the comments. I had no idea that the windsocks are seasonal. (Must be migration or ssome such ...)

I think the post-processing was worth the trouble - it is a subdued but very good picture. The carp windsocks are only raised in May, and there is quite a bit of 'keeping up with the joneses' involved. I am going back to Japan shortly on holiday (I lived there from 97-99) and will be very happy if I get a few shots as good as the ones here.

Yes that sun is obviously giving a bit of processing grief, but the composition is excellent anyway.
