Lanterns of Kasuga Taisha, Nara

Posted by Hoshisato (Ealing, United Kingdom) on 8 October 2008 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

On the way back from Kasuga Taisha I came across two more stone lanterns that were backlit by the setting sun. I had taken many photos that day and I was about to walk by this chance as it seemed impossible to catch the feeling of the moment on photo, but I decided to take it anyway.
