Japan

Mist, rain and nature coming together in the Kansai region.

---

After one month of Kung Fu training at Japan Osaka Kung Fu School, I spent an extra week in the Kansai region, capturing the places and atmosphere of Kyoto, Nara and Osaka. It was the beginning of cherry blossom season, with the first sakura starting to bloom.

In Kyoto, the traditional atmosphere really stood out, especially in the evenings. Walking through the streets felt completely different from the fast pace of Osaka. I also headed north to Kifune Shrine — beautiful surroundings. It was raining, which made it even more atmospheric: mist, rain and nature coming together.
