white birch park at Mt. Akagi in japan (赤城山の白樺公園)

This shot was taken the day of school reunion. I and my bud were going to Mt.Akagi by his car and I found greate group of White Birchs on our way of distination.
I was thinking that I do not find this view in United States, so that I put 70-200 on my camera and junped out from his car.
And I regrated I left my self in extreme wind. I manage myself to walk to the point of good view.
While I was trying taking this shot, My 70-200 became like a kite and my camera was shaking far beyond image stabilizer's territory.
You might not able to imagine I was struggling taking this calm hand held shot.

これは日本に、同窓会があると言うので帰国した時に同窓会の当日の昼、故郷からいつも見ていた赤城山に親友と行く事になり、その時に撮ったものですが、とにかく風が物凄く吹いていて、手持ちのカメラが振り飛ばされそうなほどでして、とてもじゃないが長玉で写真を撮るには不向きでしたが、とりあえずこんな風にとても落ち着いた静かな写真になりました。
いつもの事だけど和彦、有難う。
