Sunrise on Sanbe


iw7427

It was a cold and windy night with lots of rain, sleet, and snow, but with the coming of the sun the wind swept the clouds off the mountain top to reveal the view....

Off to the north Izumo and the mountains north of Izumo taisha were clearly visible...

To the east the valleys were still filled with clouds and mist.... known as unkai in Japanese...

iw7457

To the west the onshore winds had not yet cleared the clouds away...

Somewhere down in the SW near the horizon was my village..... with the sun the fall colors cloaking the mountain were finally visible....
