AN AFTERNOON ON NAOSHIMA

All the weird and the wonderful, what a splendid day it was. And with this unearthly, glissening light, the all so well groomed vegetation and buildings, together with a museum regime that with white clad, solemn attendants and a total image taking prohibition did resemble that of a sect, it became transparent that indeed we found ourselves at the edge of the Bond universe albeit in a section where weapons are prohibited.
