21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Yuki Gomori

Yuki Gomori - Seclude from cold snowy winter and stay indoors as wild animals hibernate - a Haiku seasonal word. In snowy regions, people often stay indoors during the winter. They wait for the long winter to end while reading a book under the kotatsu or making preparations for the spring field work by the hearth. A geisha in Kyoto in the midst of a dance practice.
