First light
The first rays of the sun are reflected in the Setsuri River where the endangered red crown cranes overnight in the winter near Tsurui Village, Hokkaido, Japan. The rising of the sun triggers the cranes to fly away from the river to the nearby fields where the farmers put out grains to feed the cranes in the winter.

on December 23, 2016This is truly lovely. I really like the "blue" snow from the early light, the shimmering silver of the water and the cranes making their way. This is a wonderful capture Terry!
