Just beautiful. There's so much happening in this photo when you really look at it. The paper lantern is really the cherry on the cake for me in this one. I read an article a little while ago about the funaya in Ine and thought it was really interesting. It's awesome getting to see fireworks happening there as well, it's like I've discovered a new side of the area that I didn't know about before. I really enjoy fireworks over water too, and there's plenty of great fireworks festivals in Japan that do just that. I was already looking forward to being able to see the boathouses in Ine one day but now I'm looking forward to it even more. Going to line it up with the Ine Fireworks Festival if I can. The reflection of the fireworks on the water looks really awesome as well.

Ine-cho, Yosa-gun, Kyoto Prefecture, there are many traditional fisherman's buildings called funaya where the first floor became a boat landing.
I saw the Ine fireworks held once a year from the hangar of the funaya.
The lights of the god lights, the sound of fireworks echoing in the hangar, all recalled good old Japan.
