I love these little bridges everywhere...It would be interesting to do a time lapse video under one of these.  I have never done one before but was thinking it would be interesting to do.

If  you have never experienced one of these before...  a lot of noodle shops in Japan have these.   You buy the ticket of the food you like from the picture and give it to the chef.   Very helpful for foreigners when they first come to Japan.

After I got home I grabbed my Canon 5DMKII and my 200mm lens with a 1.4x Teleconverter and my Canon 580 EXII Flash.   I wanted to grab a few shots of the young birds I saw the other day.
