Taken on a dark and snowy night in Higashiyama, Kyoto. Braving the elements to capture vignettes that'll last me a lifetime puts a big smile on my face.
A photo from Kiyomachi Dori in Kyoto last night. The most moving part of the walk was being told by a small boy to look up into the trees, through the petals to a white bird that was sitting in a branch. Once I noticed one I realised there were dozens of these white birds, hidden and perfectly camouflaged among the white-pink sakura petals in full bloom. My jaw dropped when I realised how many of the little animals I had utterly failed to notice. The boy saw the stunned look on my face and smiled as if his work was done. He’d opened another adult’s eyes to the world around him he was failing to see. I thanked him and he moved off with parents. It’s amazing what you can learn from kids. They’re a constant inspiration. 夕べ木屋町で撮った桜の写真を「２０１３の桜」アルバムにアップしました。 皆さんは今年お花見に行きましたか？ via my professional homepage http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ofriceandzen/~3/oGb0PkUmNP8/46645617784
