painting lanterns

Posted by akarui (Kagoshima, Japan) on 13 September 2008 in Art & Design.

A short serie taken at night this summer in Kagoshima. The first pictures are about lanterns made by the students of different shools of Kagoshima and exposed during a summer festival.

Thank you very much for all your comments.
You can see the same picture in bigger size and better resolution on my new blog.

I love the way you used what little light you had in the lanterns to light the shot, beautiful.

C'est à la fois lumineux et très coloré. J'aime bien ces ambiances estivales pour deambuler au hasard dans la ville. As tu dejà fabriqué une de ces lanternes?

@KIJI: Merci Kiji. Non je n'ai ni fabrique ni assiste a la fabrication de ces lanternes dont certaines etaient magnifiques, de vrais oeuvres d'art.

Ca donne envie de déambuler, tranquille, en regardant cette expo en plein air. J'aime ces moments tout simples de balades dans les rues quand je visite un pays.
