For whom the (temple) bell tolls — twice

The sight and sound of this temple bell has featured on Tokyo Times before, but seeing it in use a second time, along with a differently decked out priest, meant that the opportunity definitely couldn’t be missed.

Unfortunately, however, the chance to make another recording was, so sadly the previous sounds will have to suffice.

Listen!

    Love how you captured the priest concentrating on that erm…bell ringer thing so intensely.
