Ai 50/1.4 in Izu (a few more)

[Yebisu]

Here's a few more from my trip to Izu using the 50 1.4 on my D3000.








This guy is a wasabi (hot green paste used in sushi) farmer.



This is the wasabi root ready to be ground into a paste.



Thanks for looking.

Nice series! Not much sushi shop use fresh wasabi here so they are rarely seen here.

Thanks. The middle of Izu is famous for wasabi farming. Wasabi needs very clean water to grow properly so Izu is the perfect place.
