muikabochi 208 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Here's a few photos from Hakkai-san today. It started off fairly clear early on but soon clouded over and by 11:30am it was snowing lightly at the top of the mountain. It was very much a silver grey kind of day and almost black-white and so that's what I've done with a few pics today. sanjo is here with me and wanting to post some stuff, so I'll get this posted and then over to him. For those who don't know, it's in Minamiuonuma (just to the north of Yuzawa) in Niigata-ken. Here in fact: http://www.snowjapan.com/e/resorts/resort_map.php?resortNo=19 Here's sanjos thread with more photos and writing and stuff: http://www.snowjapanforums.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/398308/Some_snaps_from_Hakkai_san_day.html Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Good pics, but are there any fancy MB colour shots too? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 There really wasn't much colour to see today Rob. It was a very silvery grey kind of day. That's why I put them all black and white, just thought I'd faff about and do something different. Put the camera away after the first hour so could get on enjoying all that soft snow out there.

muikabochi 208 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 That's what I thought, kokodoko. Tons of snow here now. Nearly 3m piled up on the roads close to my home now in some places. Link to post Share on other sites

joshnii 2 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Wish I could of been there, next time. Great pics of Hakkaisan both of you. I see one or two 'action shot's creeping in there, muika? Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Good call on the b/w. See, you don't need deep blue skies muika! Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Fab pics again muika, though probably no need to say that every time you post them! Good luck with getting the action shots too Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 B/W pics are cool. I like your recent "close up of steep slopes" kind of shot. Looks like you and sanjo had a fine day. And quaffing some beer right now no doubt. Link to post Share on other sites
kkk 7 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Ace as always Where's this looking towards muikabochi? Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Looking south towards Muikamachi/Yuzawa perhaps? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Yes, near the top centre will be central Muikamachi. To the left you can just about make out Ishiuchi Maruyama, Gala, Yuzawa Kogen and Kagura. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Just about! I think I can see them up there. Thanks muika. Link to post Share on other sites

iiyamadude 6 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Nice muika. Yeah b/w often gives pics a certain feeling and probably good for a day like that. Still generally prefer big vibrant colors though. Link to post Share on other sites
