In Praise of Shadows

In Praise of Shadows, Calligraphy and View

There are shadows to the same extent as light. Humans may only see the light side.

Japanese culture and traditions have valued shadows.
But it can be hard to feel.

Maybe you know little of the shadow side. It can't be helped.
There are a number of gorgeous photo of light and shadow and how they are used in Japanese esthetics of everyday living. At the end is a link to the documentary, In Praise of Shadows. I will definitely be watching it. Click through and check it all out.
