thanks Barton..just a beginner but enjoy taking photos! cheers for the encouragement!

The lookout at Suma from which you can see the Great Pearl Bridge,the largest suspension bridge in the world.On a clear day you can see as far as the Shikoku Islands.

This shrine is a national treasure.Actually older than the more famous Izumo Shrine.

Some Jizo statues protecting Nabejima island.

Again..Matsue looks lovely at night.

The lovely Matsue castle by night.

Matsue is a canal city.They certainly look pretty lit up at night.

thanks Mogwii for the suggestion.It was up towards the top,maybe 3o mins or so away from the plateau I think from memory.Beautiful place and I would do it again if I had the chance.

tried the Nik silverEfex filter on this.Nice filter.

This is a natural waterfall,but it has a fallen tree across it which makes it a bit unusual.
