THE FAR EAST. A WESTERN EYE THROUGH A WEATHERED LENSE

Just some images from this years tour to Japan with Curse. For whatever reason these ones stuck out more than others.. Allot got taken. My camera rarely made its way back into the bag before i was back in tourist mode again.

What an amazing place..
Enjoy.
