Can't remember how but I wandered over to this delightful site for a magazine and book publisher promoting traditional Japanese crafts and culture. It's a nicely designed site, too. It's definitely on my list of books to browse when I take my next trip back to Tokyo.
[Summer Sky above PS1, Long Island City - shot by myself]
A few years ago, I found myself feeling wonderfully inspired by the big skies in Montana. Even with the majestic mountains towering in the distance, these skies seemed to stretch farther than any of the skies I've seen above New York. I miss looking up to the big and swift moving clouds as I negotiate the canyons of the city... but on rare summer days, these puffy creatures are seen vacationing here. Come back more often, big sky country clouds.
