This one doesn't show up like I want it - I show it here anyway (in the hope for precious hints and tipps for the future :-) ) While walking through some back streets one day I found this School for Kyudo. It was one of those most touching moments: A small Japanese woman with this huge bow, concentrating - full of beauty, but with an overhelming inner strengh. There is a safety net against the street, so no (good) pictures possible. I made a few anyway, just for myself. Ever since I want to go back there and ask if I may take some pictures from inside the area. I simply don't dare :-( (though they will most probably decline anyway, but then I even can't take some from the outside). A Japanese working colleague encouraged me, and even wrote me a note in Japanese, that I'm a "student of photography" (*lol*) interested in Kyudo and would like to ask for permission to take some pictures. With an email where to send them later for a permission to publicate them. I always pass there - last time too late, the school was already closed. This time there were simply too much people... *sigh* And *if* I get the permission one day I'd like to be prepared. And maybe even equipped with a better zoom so I can separate people better from the background. So this pic here stands mostly for me as a reminder - one day :-) One day I'll be brave enough, and ask. I saw nobody when I took this one - maybe they left one of the doors open just for me :-)
