Photo of the Day - Nara Park

I took this photo on my first trip to Japan. It is in the ancient Nara forest where deer roam freely. It was a very cold day and there was a mist that would come and go as I walked through the forest. There was hardly anyone else around and it was so quiet and peaceful.
This photo captures the exact mood of the day. It was dark, mist was obscuring the view and then a deer came out and crossed my path. At that moment, I felt the presence of the ancient spirits in the forest. It was an amazing day.

Have you been to Nara and walked through the forest?
