The Virtual Paintout, an art blog challenge which uses Google Street View to paint or draw a given landscape site, has traveled to the island of Hashima, off the coast of Japan. Hashima is an abandoned mining town (island), once home to many, but a tourist site and ruin now, a perfect place for the scary month of Halloween!
I found this wall, by the shore where some scarfs had been left behind. And what is that red object? It looks very much like a bowl - and supports the feeling of abandonment and mystery that pervades the island. You can visit this site and decide what you think by clicking here!
