This doe was easily the sweetest of the many deer in Nara. She let me sit right by her and (very carefully) pet her and, of course, snap this shot. It turns out some of them are nicer when you don’t have senbei for them!

Yesterday, I visited Nara to see many traditional Japanese architectures with my friend. On the way from Nara station to Todai-ji temple, we saw many deer. And then my friend suddenly said me ”let’s take pictures with temple and deer. ” This photo was made through this progress.

Nara Park is home to hundreds of freely roaming deer. Considered in Shinto to be messengers of the gods, Nara’s nearly 1200 deer have become a symbol of the city and have even been designated as a natural treasure.

Catching a little mid-afternoon sun, trying to keep warm in December in Japan. Oh, there’s a deer here too!

While taking a rest in the Nara Deer Park, Japan, this young male deer ventured up close and looked up - long enough for me to quickly take out my camera and capture the brief moment

⛩️ Sanctuary of Fushimi Inari-taisha ⛩️ To get to the fox sanctuary, 233 meters above sea level, you walk through a 4 kilometer trail that runs under hundreds of sacred portals (or gates), better known as Torii. The path takes a few hours, but once at the top, satisfaction is immense 😎

Fushimi Inari Shrine (伏見稲荷大社, Fushimi Inari Taisha) is an important Shinto shrine in southern Kyoto. It is famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates, which straddle a network of trails behind its main buildings. The trails lead into the wooded forest of the sacred Mount Inari, which stands at 233 meters and belongs to the shrine grounds.

Walking up the hill through ~3000 shrines dedicated to God Inari. It is always a busy walkway filled with people during August. I was lucky enough to get some 2-3 seconds of free passage. The shot was taken on One Plus 5 (Pro mode).

In the Fushimi Inari-taisha park, thousands of shrines can be found on one single trail. With the olympics coming to Japan in 2020 I wil post a couple of screen grabs from 360 photo’s I shot during my Japan (IVRPA Conference) visit in 2018.

This is the Yasaka temple, in Kyoto. This is a typical subject for a shot, with its illumitaed lanterns. I decided to try something a bit original, using HDR and converting the image to black and white to highlight the contrast between the elements.

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.
