PICTURE POST!

[TheSeeker]

As long as we're on the subject of Italy, here's a flood of some shots I took while in Tuscany a few years ago.

This is where we stayed while there.

Some of the abandoned properties nearby.

The view from a terrace just off our room.

Another abandoned property my wife and I explored.

And yes, I kind of have a thing for cool looking doors.

You took pictures in Siena as well, iirc? I have a bunch, but my camera isn't anywhere near as good as yours.

 

[TheSeeker]

I did take some shots of Siena but I haven't actually sorted through all my photos so those shots haven't beern uploaded to Flickr yet.

Boco, I don't think anyone objected to interesting pics of you... I think the issue raised was that there was a great many posts of interesting pics of you and some of the men on the board got, uh, too excited about them.

All things in moderation (and since I'm not actually a moderator, I'll cease trying to be a miniature one now).

I still haven't seen a good reason why "ties suck".

A well-worn tie is both stylish and sexy.

Hope Solo proves my point.

Also, Don Draper/Jon Hamm. At least that's what my female buddies tell me. He's not a bad role model for dressing well, I have to give him that.

Obviously , such pics won't be seen here ever again ...

Great pics so far, looks like it was an awesome trip!

Please. I'd fuck him.

here's instead a pic of a classic mountain village in Italy

Little medieval villages on top of hills are so awesome. It's one of my favourite parts of Italian countryside to be honest. I shall post some, too soon.

Gaaaaaah. You shall be spanked for that joke.

But grats on recognizing him. You're right.

Some pics I took in Japan last year, when I first visited the island of Miyajima in Hiroshima Prefecture...

A warrior statue at the ferry port in Miyajimaguchi:

A deer in Miyajima (they're all over the place), window shopping:

I love these lion statues at Miyajima. They're about 5 or 6 meters high.

The deer are so tame (they're sacred and protected on Miyajima), they came up and started chewing on these girls' shirts:

A gorgeous back yard at a home in Miyajima turned into a historical museum:

The Otorii Gate at low tide. The locals run out and collect shellfish left on the sea bed when the tide is out.

On the way up Mt. Misen:

An impromptu shrine on the ascent:

Me, atop Mt. Misen:

The Five-Story Pagoda:

Some awesome metal art in Miyajima:

A final look back, at the Five-Story Pagoda, Mt. Misen and the Otorii Gate:
