Forest Walk in Rain through Mitaki Mountain Temple | Hiroshima, Japan

Walking in the rain along a stream through the forest around Mitaki-dera, a sprawling temple complex in the mountains of Hiroshima, Japan. I hadn’t planned on filming a walk here, but as I started walking up into the temple the sound of distant rolling thunder, a small stream flowing down the mountain, and rain falling on the forest leaves made it impossible to resist grabbing my camera.
