Kayabuki no Sato is a small village in the Miyama countryside, outside of Kyoto, Japan. It's well known for its traditional thatched roof wooden houses and beautiful natural scenery. I wanted to walk through the village at dawn, so I camped alongside the Yura River and was up before the sunrise to enjoy the mountain atmosphere with a bit of fog and mist.

The village was so quiet, with just the sounds of frogs and insects over the rush of the river - or at least that was what I intended to capture. I tried a new microphone placement that picked up more walking noise than expected but it was such a beautiful scene so I hope that can be the focus. I appreciate your patience as the technical aspects are refined over time. All in all it was a great walk in a beautiful village, I hope you enjoy it as well.
