anyway, your transport brought you to 5th stage, and did you hike up to around 7th stage??
wanted to go Hakone but hear about the cold weather and slippery road, so didn't drive there..

went to Hayama, and have a great view of Enoshima with Mt Fuji..

i didn't know that my hands and legs would totally freeze at -1 degrees when i got off the tour bus.
my brain didn't react well to the temperature,so never really think about the manual settings kinda got lazy since the buttons are small anyway to press with gloves on.
never mind there is always next time.

I did something similar when I was in China during winter. It was freezing cold, however, after a short walk, I decided to take out the gloves and shoot.

Well, of course it was cold, and hard to control my hands, but with a few nice shots, till today, I still strongly believe that it is worth while...

Anyway, nice shots you had, keep up the good work, shoot more and share.

yah thanks even though they are just point and shoot pictures.
i did take off my gloves once at ikebukuro to take some night shots around the area.
took around 5-8 shots before my hands go numb.
