陸中一の關附近嚴美渓天工橋
Tengubashi at Genbikei, near Ichinoseki, Rikuchu Province
Under a sky framed by cliffs, a mountain stream flows between the rocks. In the foreground, big round boulders sit in a row.
About this photo
Bright sky shows across about the top quarter, with dark, tree-covered cliffs closing in from left and right. In the middle spreads a riverbed or rocky stretch of layered whitish rocks, and the valley continues into the distance. At the lower left, the surface of flowing water can be seen.
Genbikei, in the title, is a gorge that runs for about 2 kilometers along the upper reaches of the Iwai River, west of Ichinoseki City. Tengubashi, at the end of the title, is a bridge that spans the gorge near its center.
At the water's edge on the lower right, several round rocks sit in a row. Compared with the fine layering of whitish rocks behind them, each one looks far larger.
