Back in December of 2013, I found myself in Kyoto, and one stop I had to see was the famous Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji or officially, Rokuon-ji). Its a popular Zen Buddhist temple which is visited by many all year round. I can say with certainty that it did not disappoint.
… well. There`s problem with the beautiful places around the world. Too many tourists. I`m part of the problem, I know. ;) With a bit of luck and a few minutes to queue up, you can take a photo of the beautiful Japanese gardens and buildings. But please imagine, what you can`t see in the picture: hundreds of tourists are just waiting behind me to take exactly the same picture. Most of them doing smartphone selfies of cause ;)

The Golden Palace temple at Kinkakuji. The old slide film just really do this one justice. A beautiful spot. || shot on slide film, 1989, scanned on Nikon CoolScan 4000.

We got kicked out from this temple because it was already closed when we got there, but on our way to the exit we had a peaceful moment when we found this statue and some monks started chanting inside the building.

We found our way through the city streets after traversing through the different temples. There is something nice about seeing the contrast between the serene and bustle of the Kyoto intertwining.

I visited Kyoto, Japan in 2014 and explored several shrines & temples with my friend. I took an interest in the many cats that explored the shrines and took several pictures of them.

If you use my work, I would really appreciate credit. It helps me grow and provide more content to share with you all for free! Please credit: www.instagram.com/igcait. An obliga-torii photo of Fushimi Inari’s famous gates in Kyoto, Japan. The day I was at the shrine it was absolutely packed. To get this photo I only had one shot - I literally sprinted as fast as I could in front of a huge group of people on the path so I could get at least one photo without anyone in the frame. Luckily it paid off - I ended up with this picture of the afternoon light trickling through the vermilion torii.

Wondering the tourist attractions of Kyoto, I got lost in the beautiful and quiet streets of Kyoto.

We are on our first trip to Japan and it is everything we imagined plus more. The Japanese are doing it right. I feel at peace looking at this scene.

On her way home. In Gion district in Kyoto, scenes like this are not too hard to find. The lady with the umbrella is a maiko, an apprentice geiko. And do not think that the kimono she wears was chosen at random. It was a perfect match for the time of the year (autumn). Also notice at the way she's walking and her posture. Perfection.

While staying in Kyoto, we visited the Shinto Shrine ""Fushimi Inari Taisha". Was a beautiful place with so many tracks and worship shrines.

Ghosts. The lady with the flowers in her hair is a maiko. That is an apprentice geiko. And since this is Kyoto, it's "geiko", not "geisha". Geisha operate in Tokyo. Geiko are becoming becoming more and more rare, so it looked appropriate to photograph them as ghosts, fading away in their habitat.
