sunrise in the East (haibun)Photo ©Arianne & Sebastien
This photo was taken by a friend and former colleague who is travelling with her partner on a cycling tour in South-East Asia. Arianne and Sebastien are very generous in sharing some of their experiences and sights along the way at Tandem en Cavale on Facebook.
Being a sucker for sunrises and sunsets, I had to write something to one of their stunning photos.
