Playing inside on a rainy day...

I've taken a bunch of these, kind of searching for the 'perfect' daikon. (phone pic)

Usually I am just thinking of one, front and center and fill/balance the frame, but I like this one which has another good daikon to the right.

I'm the secretary of a Wales/Japan friendship society. Yesterday I attended the Remembrance Sunday ceremony at the Commonwealth War Cemetery in Hodogaya, Yokohama, where I unofficially represented Wales by laying a wreath.

Tried to go out, but it started raining again almost immediately... :(

But then driving, ended up taking some rindo-like roads that were pretty marginal to drive on--literally one narrow lane, twisting switchbacks, covered in leaves, always a nice steep falloff on one side... The kind of road that it'd be nice to turn around, but there was never a place to do that, just hope that going forward/onward is somehow less worse than trying to go back and find another way.

So marginal roads, and marginal pics:

And this is from an exhibit. There might have been 100+ big prints, I liked this one the best--and left it bigger so you can see the details, and photog's name/titling info.

One of our neighbours is a "choirmaster of an amateur chorus" (his words). Last week, he invited us to a Beethoven soiree. Little did we know that his chorus comprised over 260 members. :LOL: Beethoven's Ninth was bombastic!

I need to post my photos before the year runs out! Though I guess technically I can still post 2023 photos here even after the new year.

In case you're still looking for Christmas presents consider Pokémon briefs for that special someone in your life.

Thanks, @thomas and no biking these days--had a snow storm maybe a week ago, so some shoveling, but it's almost gone now. I'm hoping 2024 will have more pedaling.

Same as above, abracadabra'd into B&W:
