stardust said...

Though safe and sound for my family, many people in that region are suffering losses. I’m so sad. I feel helpless in front of huge energy of nature. Your photo is just apt to that emotion. I’ll relax myself having tea.

This is a marvelous photo. It really does encourage us to 'be still and know ... '. I don't think we make enough time for still in our daily lives.
Thank you.

DUTA said...

In black and white photography, even a cup and its reflection can look dramatic. It suits the Drama of the tragic events going on in Japan.

Beautiful shot! I have come to the point recently that the sight of a peaceful volcano makes me nervous!...

Forgive me for offering unasked for advice, but it is hard to see the links on your page because the color of the text is so dark it blends in with the background...
