600th post

For the record, the 600th post happened on a Tuesday. A rather normal day in the scheme of things. Today's pictures are more interesting. They were taken in pitch black with my dSLR. A shot I have always wanted to attempt. There was also a thunder storm here after 11PM last night. (I think it woke up everyone in town at 11:31PM with an absolutely defining crack.) A thunderstorm in Japan is a rare occurance on anyday, let alone for a 600th post! It was the first time I can recall it thundering at night. Normally the storms roll in early morning as the day heats up.
