Floating Torri of Ouo Shrine. This is a great spot hidden away in Japan located in the Araike Sea. 349 9
Long exposure at Sakurai Futamigaura. Not very often are there waves here, but when there are it becomes a popular surf spot. The waves also help create some mood around the rocks, something that's always missing when I come here. 495 23

Fukushima Island. Not the Fukushima you're thinking of but one of the many islands in Nagasaki. This one is known for having amazing views of rice field terraces. 175 7
A pair of fireflies spiral in a final dance. These beetles only live about a week or two in this stage of life before laying their eggs and dying. Then the cycle repeats, Egg, Larva, Pupa (cacoon), Adult. Some firefly eggs are bioluminescent, and some species have a two year long cycle. 180 4
The tide slowly rises at the Floating Torii Gate of Ouo Shrine. This is an awesome little spot in Saga Japan and fairly unknown. By fairly unknown I mean there was maybe 4 other photographers there, rather than the usual 300 like at some of the other Japan hot spots. 487 16

Bridge to the Westfield Century City Mall

I live only a few miles from Century city, maybe two but yet I've never been there to take photos. I've been to China, Indonesia, Japan three times, the Grand Canyon twice but I haven't been to this cool little place that's only two miles from my house. Kind of funny how that works. Century city is pretty cool, a quiet little spot in Los Angeles but this city also holds the infamous Die Hard building. Remember that building from the first Die Hard? Yep I drive right buy it every day from work and I can see it almost from my house. I've been meaning to get some photos of it one day. But for tonight, I went down to the mall wondered around for a bit to find a cool spot until stumbling upon this bridge. My main goal was actually to test out my new 9 stop ND filter but it got two be too dark before I found a good spot. I'll probably take it to the beach next weekend and see what it can produce. 

Today's HDR Photo

Bridge to the Westfield Century City MallThe bridge over Avenue of the Stars is a pretty cool little spot in westwood. Just behind me is the Westfield Century City mall. I was walking around this area for a bit and couldn't really seem to find any great spots to take photos in. The area is cool but just no good vantage points. Until I found this spot at night. The way way everything is lit up at night makes for some great HDR photos.See my photoblog at https://alikgriffin.com
