Sky Watch Friday: Miyajima, Japan




Here's another incredible Miyajima, Japan photo. This time, it was taken by my brother. I was, still groggy and not awake enough to get myself downstairs to walk to the pier to take the photos. That's OK. Dennis and Art took enough to make up for what I never got around to doing myself. The funny thing is, the following morning I woke early to make sure I got a great sunrise shot, too, but there were no clouds in the sky. In fact, a whole bunch of other photographers with extremely high powered cameras with tripods were out there but sigh... we were not so lucky.
