I’m usually a fanatic when it comes to chasing autumn colors each year but this year, after spending autumn solstice in Japan, I had sort of given up, figure I’ve probably missed peak autumn color season at home.

As I sort and edit the nearly 1,000 photos I took on my trip to Japan, I feel like I’m experiencing Japan all over again as I find the story behind each photo. My favorite photos have so far been the nature photos.
