I’m not good at night shots but I think I did this one justice… What do you think?
One of the most famous temples in Kyoto. Argh, I wish I could tell you the name, but Japanese names are just too hard to remember! But if you’ve been to Kyoto, you’ve probably been here, because it’s at the end of the famous street where all foreigners go shopping for Kyoto sweets and souvenirs, hehehe.
A majestic view from the temple too, as it sits on the top of a mountain. But ah, that is for another post.

Great shot, this is a good start for night shot.

Sigh… I’d love to go to Japan one of these days… maybe even visit Studio Ghibli and go to a hot spring while I’m there… how neat would that be?

Happy weekend!

Flisha, thanks for the link.
yes, fireworks really are special here especially in the summer. almost all cities conduct a hanabi festival annually. the biggest hanabi in tokyo is the one in sumidagawa river.
by the way, we are planning to stay here for maybe 20years? depends really… but i do miss the philippines…
