This weekend the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens held their annual Bon Festival. Based on the Japanese Obon Festival (which lasts three days), these festivals are the equivalent of the "Day of the Dead" festival in Mexico. Instead of dressing up like skeletons, people write the names of loved ones who have passed on along with any messages they want to send to them on paper lanterns that are then lit and floated down a river, stream, lake, pond, etc.

Here are a few shots, all handheld, all shot with my M8 + CV Nokton 35mm f/1.4 MC, all DNG processed in LR3.

Watching the ferry ship out, San Juan Islands, WA



On the ferry, scenes of activity and inactivity


On top of Mt. Constitution...phew, long bike ride up..but what a view
I really love these type images that you do ,the tones and texture are beautiful ... spent most of youth taking the ferry to get off the rock I lived on ... brings back memories

Thankyou Endre and Mike :) Some inclement weather headed my way, was planning on shooting the same location tomorrow morning but I'm not so sure, here is the beach this afternoon...

Same combo as before.

Beautiful as always, Daniel, perhaps a tad more so.
