In Japan the sunrises at like 3:50am in the summer. I set my alarm for 4, scrambled to get dressed, and ran out to the coast, but by the time I was in position the sun was already all the way up and casting crazy shadows. impossible. at least the water showed up a prettier colour in these ones. The golden rays sure made a big difference on what colours showed up from the water and rocks and cliffs. In real life it was even more pretty! You see that flat little boat way out there in that one shot? That's the boat with the air supply for the sea walking. This is where we walked around on the bottom. Such a pretty cove.

This is one of my very very favourite dresses, and I've had it for years, but it seems like every time I wear it something happens so that either photos never get taken, or photos that were taken mysteriously disappear- so here's to hoping the post doesn't delete itself or something crazy.
