Post one of two: Shadow Mountains

[asakiyume]

At this time in the morning, the shadows of the tiny bits of snow we have cast huge. It's like looking at the Guilin Mountains.

See?



Can't you imagine wandering there, with your sturdy pack horse carrying your porcelain tea set and some charcoal, so that when you tire, you can sit down, make a fire, brew some tea, and watch the sky and the mountains?

Oh, they do! How cool!

We have some spectacular snow right now. I wanted to get pictures, but from here at work, the sunlight reflects too strongly off the snow.

That's really, really beautiful.

An absolutely wonderful way to see our world in it's bigness and smallness!

Your snow-peaks are very sharp indeed - sky-piercers!

Thats so cool! Looking at your photo is almost like falling into that little world of mountains. It's a simpler shot than Hiroji's, but a neat effect.
