A few last snapshots of the lovely island of Enoshima

Hako-Inu meets a scary guardian statue near a shrine. Luckily he's not an evil spirit and can chill nearby. (Hako-Inu now has his own page! visit him here:) ).

There is a spot on the island where couples can buy or bring locks and write their names on them, and then lock them on this gate to symbolise lasting union.

  4. I feel like your photography is getting more and more beautiful! I love the idea of the locks, how romantic! My mom is heading to Taiwan on Saturday to travel with a friend of hers from there, and I told her to check out your blog for inspiration! She now is having me create her a blog, so I guess the inspiration worked :)
    Safe travels!
