One of Kume-jima’s most notable landmarks is a patch of naturally-formed rock slabs in pentagons and hexagons. They call them tatami stones, which doesn’t quite fit because tatami mats are rectangular but whatever. They still make a pretty spectacular picture.
The setting. I was really excited to take a couple good pictures of the kids out here. They were pretty excited too, but not about taking pictures; they had lots of fun exploring though!
One set of eyes/smile = really not such a bad picture. Just not the golden one I had hoped for.
I can’t complain too much though, especially when there was so much pure joy and exuberance being expressed.
Whee! Puddles!
Yes, I know it’s basically a shot of her butt, but I like the color-contrasts.
Here’s a shot of her front side too, so you don’t feel like you are missing out.

Hmm. I don’t seem to have mastered the model hair-blowing-in-the-wind thing exactly. The remnants of our picnic don’t do much to help the picture either. Ah well!
A quick hike rounded out the morning and brought us to this spectacular view.
Stay tuned.
Those stones are amazing - just like someone cut the stones perfectly and laid them out! Two cute little ones just adds to the beauty - and you & Jake don't hurt things either!!!!! Thanks for sharing.
