Man I love Japan. This is Himeji Castle near Kyoto Japan. This picture tries to capture how amazing the castle really is. Being there in person is the only way to feel how incredible it is. In 1601 Terumasa Ikeda, son-in -law of the Shogun Ieyasu Tokugawa, rebuilt this castle into a five storied monster. Himeji was very important to the Shogun because of its defensive positioning.

Beautiful! The angle you took this at and the trees in the foreground make me feel like I am standing there looking at the building myself! You did a great job!

确实，我们对心灵里面发生的东西的观察，看来从来不能超出我们自己的意识所限制的范围。但是，表面现象往往具有欺骗性。
