Contrast and Compare

Upon returning to Momoishi a few days ago, I couldn't help but feel slightly taken aback by the amount of snow on the ground. Granted, the average yearly snowfall here is probably about the same as, if not less than, that of Chicago. However, when juxtaposed with snow-free Tokyo, it makes quite an impression. This gave me an idea-wouldn't it be neat to compare photos of Momoishi in January with photos of the same locations taken in the summer and fall in order to observe how the landscape has changed? I sure thought so.

If we're talking about the landscape of your blog, yes it is a nice change to have left the days of small, unappealing pictures behind and moved into the halcyon days of less shrunken digital photos.

It's facinating to be reminded of how snow dresses up things, at least temporarily. Welcome back, Mehan.
