waterfall and rocks 滝と石 (kawazu, izu, japan)

Posted by timothy sullivan (Tokyo, Japan) on 16 February 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

when tracing one of the rivers up to the foothills marking its source, i encountered the locally famous seven waterfalls of Kawazu (one of which is shown here). the geology of the area is amazing; now, it has been a while since i've taken a geology course, but the area seems to be surrounded by these amazing basalt columns that, over the ages, have been uplifted and warped into these beautiful flowing lines that mirror the surrounding water.
