Today's Photo.

Fire was a huge concern in old Japan (and in fact, still is).  Many old temples still have beautiful rain barrels situated under their eaves.  I love visiting temples in the rain...in addition to enjoying less crowded conditions, I can watch the rain barrels in action.

Water drips into a rain barrel at the Naritasan Shinshoji temple, Chiba Prefecture.
