In the Chinese Zodiac it’s the year of the monkey. And if you were born in 1956 you are a fire monkey—ambitious and adventurous, but irritable. So all you smart & naughty monkeys out there, take care to make 2016 a lucky year!
Here are some glimpses at what we are doing and seeing in Japan. Snow has been falling and contributing to the beauty of the landscape.
We concluded our visit to Yudanaka and the snow monkeys and began our trek to Kawaguchiko.
We arrived near Mt. Fuji with poor visibility, but awoke the next day with clear skies. This allowed beautiful blue skies by day and time-lapse shots showing star trails near evening.
Keep following.

Here we are in Yudanaka, Japan photographing the Macaques in their native hot spring pools. I love coming to this place and look forward to the rich images we will find as we explore Japan.
