Raw video of Genbaku Dome, Motoyasu-gawa, and Memorial Cenotaph for Atomic Bomb Dome Survivors

Near raw footage of castle walkthrough. Need to redo this again (before they start the 3 year restoration work in 2009) since I didn't even realize at the time how dirty the lens filter was. I also forgot to disable the auto focus (=_=').

Some kind of small hand held stabilizer might also help (a larger unit like a Glidecam, Spiderbrace, or one of the DIY type systems might be problematic in navigating up the steep/narrow stairs). Walking up these steep steps with a large and nearly loaded backpack while carrying two cameras (and recording with one) can be rather hazardous as it messes with your balance (nearly fell backwards one time). I didn't video my previous Himeji visit and had a smaller pack so it was much easier going.

Fukuroda Falls (袋田の滝 Fukuroda no taki) is located deep within a gorge in the town of Daigo (大子町 Daigomachi) in Ibaraki Prefecture.  It is considered one of the top 3 most beautiful falls in Japan.  During the winter, the waterfall freezes completely into a gigantic icicle. making an already spectacular sight even more amazing.
