Fall colors walk
As the sun burned off the mist early this morning the day promised to be fine, and as it has been pretty lousy weather for a few weeks I decided to get out and try and photograph some Fall colors.
I had to meet someone in Oda City in the afternoon, so I decided to head up early and spend a few hours exploring the Honmachi district.
Honmachi means "oldtown" and there are a half dozen or so temples and 3 or 4 shrines to explore.
There wasnt a lot of color about, but enough to satisfy me.
Going upriver on the train home the setting sun highlighted the mountaintops so I resolved to head up into the mountains for a walk tomorrow.
i am so happy i found your blog! i used to live in masuda, and worked in hamada and gotsu. and i'm so jealous of your pictures!
