[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A unique view of the village homes in Shirakawago from my previous post. The A-frame style roof of the house can be seen from a reflection of a convex mirror to help on blind curves. The snow buildup looks like frosting on a cake doesn't it?

First I thought it was an astronaut, but then I saw it was a mirror! Very good photo!
