Odyssey: Christmas in Okinawa
by Helen Betts

Itoman City, Okinawa

I decided to enter images from the places we've lived in recent years: Japan, Turkey and the United States. This is the Peace Park display in Itoman City, Okinawa, which takes place around Christmas every year. There are 1 million lights in the entire park, roughly approximating the number of Okinawans in the islands.

Beautiful image - I love all those tiny lights, and it's cool that the reflection has more color than the lights themselves! I love the streaky look of the reflected lights, too.

I love the reflection on the water and the monochromatic feel of the picture. A very beautiful capture indeed.
