July 24, 2020 It has been an extremely rainy rainy season, especially for the island of Kyushu in southwest Japan. We have had continuous cloud cover for practically two weeks it seems. This has prevented me from seeing or filming the beautiful comet Neowise. I did manage to make a short time lapse of the Moon and Venus rising together when the clouds parted for a few hours. This was before Neowise was to become so prominent in the skies.

Yesterday I was thinking, if you can’t beat the constant rainfall, why not join it? So this morning I drove to Gotono Falls, figuring the cataracts must be humongous, and I was not disappointed. I wanted to film the falls in the early morning hours without any artificial light. The video only hints at the awesome power of the water. I could feel the vibrations through the big boulder I was standing on.
Thanks for stopping by. Be safe everyone.
