Japan
‘Yasei’! Brilliant graphic design from Nike, these insect resemblance made from numbers of pairs of Nike Free sport shoes have never been seen by me in any other places, except in Harajuku street fashion district of Tokyo. Nike Free Haven shoes are used to make up a spider while Nike Free Advantage are made into a butterfly. In fact there is another huge dragon resemblance graphic displayed on the billboard which I did not capture.
Whatever is it, they made me stop at their shopfront and start looking closely. A successful piece of marketing material from Nike. ‘Yasei’ or wild is their slogan. How could they think of this crazy idea! Perhaps they are only for Japan domestic market, which I don’t know, or anyone knows about this?
It is always interesting to see different models and advertisement of your favourite brands in other countries. And this is a privilege to FIT (Free and Independent Travel) travelers when we have the leisure and freedom to stroll down the shopping street slowly, without being urged to leave for the next destinations.

Brilliant. A simple word says it all. This is how I describe the cityscape view at night in Hakodate, Japan. Fortunately, with a steady tripod and my Nikon D7000 hooked up with Nikkor 10-24mm ultra wide angle lens, I managed to captured it at a perfect timing, just before the fog and after the rain, and at the perfect location, on the top of Mount Hakodate. What makes this one of the best city view in Japan, apart from the attractive lighting at night, is the location from where we are looking over, the Mount Hakodate.
Some EXIF info: Shot in Aperture Priority Auto mode, with Shutter speed 4 Sec and Aperture f5.0. Focus distance was set to 18mm. ISO 100. Auto White Balance. No flash fired and -1/3 EV exposure being compensated with Matrix metering.
Mount Hakodate (函館山) is the highest point in Hakodate, measuring 334m high. Due to its geographical location at the Southern tip of the city , it gives us the best height and position to view the whole city, nothing but the city of Hakodate in Hokkaido, Japan.
I should have set a smaller Aperture such as F9 or F11 but huge crowds on top of the observation deck made it impossible to capture a sharp image. So I opted for a much faster shutter speed. blessing in disguise, the result came out was not too bad at all. I love it! – Travel Feeder, your ultimate travel photo guide to Japan.
