all in wood

Posted by akarui (Kagoshima, Japan) on 10 October 2008 in Architecture.

We still can see some old wooden houses in modern Japan. I don't know if that building, which was in the continuation of the wall (yesterday picture), is a private house. It makes me think about the pictures of GJC on old storehouses.

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

Wood and Stones are my favourite house elements, I like this very much :)

It's amazing the detail. The weathered and worn wood is just beautiful.

Beautiful shot Olivier. The texture on old wood is always beautiful no matter how old it ages.
