A red flag

Kyoto, Japan

20060930 129.jpg (Posted 2006.10.06)

Following the suggestion of our guide book, we wandered up the hill behind Nanzen-ji.
And apart from the things we were actually looking for, we also found a lot of spiders.
I've been scared of spiders since I was a kid, but I can still appreciate their
warning colours and the sunlight glancing off a web.

Same for me!
I can't control that fear of spiders since my childhood
but, like you, i can also appreciate beauty...in so many ways
when we make time to see...

It's amazing what you can do behind the camera.

Gorgeous colors indeed! I like your choice of angle too. But it's giving me the creepy-crawly feel :-(
