Ryokan

The rice paper screens grow lighter, fading up from a dark slate grey to a translucent saffron, their wooden frames casting soft shadows on the floor's black-framed tatami mats, backlit by the early morning light.

trial run of subscription

0 min read

so yes...I've decided to try a 1 month subscription, to see if it's worth it for a deviant who really doesn't upload much.  We'll see, I guess...now if I got a digital camera, we'd be going somewhere, but heaven know's when I'd be able to afford one...
