Twilight at Fuji

First there was a gray sunset like I had never seen before.  Then the small
town below lit up making it look like a metropolis in the wilderness.  When
the sun left us, the darkness hid the mountain before, and we knew not 
what we were about to undertake.

Terry shoots

I like to take pictures of people taking pictures. Twilight begins to fall upon Fujinomiya 5th station . . .

A gray sunset

That is not the moon. That is the sun. My camera was not in b&w mode either. I don't know why this shot came out mostly in gray tones, but I'm glad that it did. I think this is what sunsets in Transylvannia must look like every evening. Fuji-san slices across the lower-right.

Gray sun sets . . .

. . . and darkness soon falls.

Twilight begins

The hamlet of Fujinomiya turns on its lights as the sky turns off its.

The world closes to me

As the sky deepens its color, the mundane, domesticated world disappears from my memory . . .

Day has passed

. . . twilight allows me one more day dream before faced with the mountain.

Moon wind

The moon actually appeared as a thin slice in the twilight sky on the beginnings of the trail, but the wind was already bellowing with such force that 4 hands could not hold my tripod steady enough to get a focused shot.
