Defiance


Contrasting summit
Knotted dominance reaching
Limbs stretched to sky

ちがい山頂
結び目圧倒的
空に枝を差す

-This Photo was taken in Yagyu Village, Nara Japan. The tree was planted bya disciple of the Yagyu Shinkage Ryu School of Swordfighting, Yagyu Jubei ~1600. For a tour well versed tour of Yagyu visit Dave Lowry's post. Keep an eye out for my photo tour to be posted in the future.

奈良県のやぎゅざとに僕は写真をとった。　　千六百年ぐらいに柳生十兵衛はこの木を植えた。　もし良いけんかくしたいだとこのサイトを訪問する。
