I got there in the evening. Herbal tea at the door, a pool of flower petals outside — dark timber, white, deep green, halfway up a mountain full of monkeys. I meant to shoot for an hour. I stayed the night.
The pagoda in the pool.
I woke up and opened the windows to the bay.
Grey morning, one gold duck facing the water. After lunch, the road south to the next shoot.
