Pretty as a picture...


I took this in the outer courtyard of the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo. I'm not sure why this woman was so dressed up--maybe she's getting ready for a wedding picture? I stood watching for a couple minutes as the photographer and his assistant got this woman ready for her photo shoot. As beautiful as her costume looks in the picture, it was even more beautiful in person.

Tomorrow--my first Guest Photo Friday!

What a beautiful shot... so candid!

I was going to submit a photo, but I can't choose so soon, so maybe for next month I will submit one of my photos for consideration!

Sue thanks for the comment! This photo was a lucky accident, and I felt fortunate to capture the woman without her knowing.

Regarding Guest Photo Fridays, you can submit your pix anytime! I've seen some of your photos on Cre8Buzz and on your blog, and you do nice work!
