Salmon Over Stream
We are behind fences so getting the right angle for a reflection turns out to be hard. Salmon returning to the creek turned out to be a theme.
String Of Balloon Lanterns
I believe these lanterns are made by putting paper mache on a balloon and then cutting off the top of the balloon (once the paper mache dries).
Nara Standing By Fence
Of course Nara can't stand still for 4 seconds. Nara had a headlamp worn as a necklace so we were less likely to lose her. They had paper bag lanterns on all the fence posts - really, very effective.
Paper Dragon Lantern
I tried waiting for the guy in the red jacket in the background to go away but he just wasn't going. When you have a kid you often don't get the luxury of waiting for a good background and still having a subject that is interested in what is going on.
