Darcy Posted October 31, 2008 Report Posted October 31, 2008 Not done my listing yet but just took these and thought I would share. There is a reason why some said he was as good as Masamune. Quote
Carlo Giuseppe Tacchini Posted October 31, 2008 Report Posted October 31, 2008 Impressive... Does it took a lot of work to take such shots ? Quote
Eric H Posted October 31, 2008 Report Posted October 31, 2008 Most excellent pictures - I think it's a Go Yoshihiro Eric Quote
Darcy Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Posted October 31, 2008 Yes, it takes a fair amount of work to do these, not everything comes out right plus the light is pretty hard on the eyes. I did about 2 hours of photography and got about 25 photos that were adequate. I am going to shoot again today to try to get some more. It is a Go Yoshihiro. There are approximately 34 Juyo Token and pretty much every Go is either a Juyo, or Bunkazai/Kokuho, so there are not many. This is one of his earlier works and is probably more rare than his later works. It was owned by the Nabeshima Daimyo. Quote
