Here's a shot of a seating area that one would be in if you were waiting for an audience with the emperor of Okinawa in Shuri Jo Castle. . . #canon5dmarkiii #hawaiiphotographer #documentaryphotography #architecture #architecturephotography #canonphotography #okinawanculture #uchinanchu #okinawanachitechture #okinawanculture #okinawanhistory #historical #historicalsite #shurijocastle #okinawa #shuri #castles #castle #shurijo #naha #stonework #woodwork #supportlocal #suportlocalbusiness #supportlocalbrand #supportsmallbusiness #canonphoto #siteseeing #travelphotography #oahuphotographer https://www.instagram.com/p/B4a-8V5DEIR/?igshid=zgwxej21ka09

Hope everyone is safe and sound during this lock down. I was just looking over some shots from my last trip to Okinawa. As I was looking over some photos I was reminded about all the amazing sights this world has to offer. Being on this lock down has made me appreciate the this we could do prior to this happening. I just wanted to share this shot with the thoughts of being able to go there again with renewed eyes.😁🙏🙏 . . #supportlocalbrand #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocal #supportlocalsmallbusiness #canon5dmarkiii #okinawa #okinawanculture #aquariums #aquarium #wishyouwerehere #canonphoto #canonphotography #findingbeautyeverwhere #whaleshark #manta #mantaray #hawaiiphotographer #oahuphotographer #collabhawaii #animals #seaanimals #covid_19 #quarantine #thoughts #newperspectives #okinawanculture #uchinanchu #okinawanachitechture #coronavirus #lockdown https://www.instagram.com/p/B-kbYFmj4SM/?igshid=17qo2j0nb61r0

After the fire that burnt down this incredible structure, that was Shuri Jo Castle; people of Hawaii, Okinawan or not, are donating to help rebuild it. It is always great to see how big the hearts of people are. . . #canon5dmarkiii #documentaryphotography #documentary #hawaiiphotographer #supportlocalbusiness #supportlocalbrand #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocal #okinawan #okinawanhistory #okinawanculture #uchinanchu #okinawanachitechture #stonework #woodwork #shurijocastle #okinawa #shuri #castles #castle #shurijo #naha #donate #historical #historicalsite #travelphotography #siteseeing #canonphotography #photoshoot #canonphoto https://www.instagram.com/p/B4dcKLWDZEB/?igshid=nm3plcpbmmzz

This is a shot of the first court yard you would be in after you entered the main gate at Shuri Jo Castle. The amount of people who go to see this historic site was amazing to see, as this was a weekday. I am hoping that it will be avle to be rebuilt soon. . . #canon5dmarkiii #okinawa #okinawanachitechture #stonework #woodwork #shurijocastle #shurijocastle #shuri #castles #castle #shurijo #nahacity #naha #okinawanhistory #okinawanculture #uchinanchu #canonphoto #canonphotography #photoshoot #travelphotography #siteseeing #historical #hawaiiphotographer #okinawanheritage #supportlocal #suportlocalbusiness #documentaryphotography #localphotographer #supportlocalbrand #supportsmallbusiness https://www.instagram.com/p/B4V_yJ_Dl3R/?igshid=g7a7p64giqrh

A shot from the Tsuji festival in Naha. . . In this time of the world getting smaller, we should celebrate what makes us diverse culturally and also how we are very similar in spirit. . . #canon5dmarkiii #okinawa #okinawanhistory #okinawanculture #uchinanchu #culture #festival #streetfestival https://www.instagram.com/p/B27mSRgDVDl/?igshid=gt1we3l4vyx5

This is a shot from behind a man made waterfall in Fukushu En Park, Okinawa. . . Somehow this always reminds me that not everything is as it seems and that we should look beyond the surface of things, situations and people. . . #canon5dmarkiii #okinawa #okinawanachitechture #stonework #waterfall #waterfalls #watermovement #okinawanculture #uchinanchu #mindset #changeyourperspective https://www.instagram.com/p/B2xJxQ7DjPb/?igshid=1bmlncnqn0h5p
