Description Here is another from the first few pieces back from my early days in 2008. Taken in Japan.

I longed for this capture after happening to come across it in some magazine. The impression it left on me was so intense, yet at the same time serene.

The rays of light overwhelmed me the first time when I finally found this spot, and I just stared... with memories flooding back.

Hi Addy! Thank you tonnes for the critique!
I felt that you could describe it so much better than I could! You were spot on is saying that this image is simple yet brings a lot of emotions. That was exactly what I felt too and hoped to portray the same through a photo

OMG.

This is quite possibly the best photo I have seen on DA.
The setting is so tranquil with an intensity so strong as to draw you in an hold you there.
