This 28-minute video from NHK World is a very good introduction to the world of tsubo-niwa (Japanese courtyard gardens) in Kyoto. I've seen many while visiting Kyoto, and have always been awed by all that can be accomplished in such small spaces. I would love to have a tsubo-niwa garden, but, unfortunately, it's not doable. Thankfully, Kyoto is only a short train ride away!

Guess the secret word! Yes, it's challenging, but it's a lot of fun, and you can have as many guesses as you like. So, once you make your guess, you will be given feedback on how hot or cold your word is and, from there, you continue to make more guesses. There's also a hint button. (Thank goodness for that!) A new secret word is published daily. Enjoy! (Update: The shortest number of words it took to find the secret word is 24, and the longest is 60. Some of these are challenging!) (Thanks to LR for this too!)
About 10 years ago, Kirby Ferguson's web series called "Everything is Remix" went viral. It touched on issues such as fair use and how creative works are inspired by existing works. In other words, nothing is completely original. Well, he's at it again. This time around, the discussion is about cultural appropriation, and I think he makes some very good points. (Thanks for this, LR!) |

I'm stepping back from social media so this is where I share links that I think others might enjoy. They will rarely be related to photography though! Archives
