Comments - Handsome view of Kawanishi Village, Tochigi Prefecture, a woman crouched at the end of the embankment along the mill race as she collects water. The waterwheel can be seen at right, with leafy trees crowding the bank and the buildings of the village behind. An interesting and unusual viewpoint.
