A Ride In The Rain

It all started so well, perfect photo opps in Nara Koen...
A Sunday ride with FiN around Nara. It should have been a perfect time to photograph the cherry blossoms. The weather had other ideas...

Naramachiten Shrine.
Naramachiten Shrine 2.
By the time we had ridden up to the Naramachiten Shrine the skies opened...

Waiting @ Naramachiten.
Not such a bad place to wait for the rain to pass though...

After a coffee stop at the Mellow Cafe we headed up to Nigatsu-do...

Seriously heavy skies over Nara...

With rain forecast on and off for the next week we may or may not get a chance to shoot some sakura. Stay tuned to find out!
