Rekindling America’s Appreciation of Photography

Morning Walk

I took a morning walk through Tokyo Meiji Jingu’s grounds and saw these two trees tied together with a traditional rope symbolizing unity and popularly called "Meoto Kusu" or "Coupled Trees". Symbolizing a happy marriage and harmonious relationship. The shrine is a popular venue for traditional Shinto weddings.

I love taking photographs from a unique angle to tell a story. This is my first time entering a photo competition and I registered with my formal name. Japan is where I was born and I call Kobe my hometown. Jeannie is my preferred name and I hope my friends find me here to vote!
