清水の舞台から眺める景色もまた良き。

ライトアップ。

【秋色階段】
まっすぐ伸びた階段の上には綺麗にライトアップされた紅葉が輝いていました。
もう少しでライトアップの時間も終わり、階段には写真を撮る人でごった返していたが、人が少なくなった瞬間を待ち切り撮りました。

【東寺ライトアップ】
とっても綺麗なライトアップでした。
時間がなく
ゆっくり撮れなかったのが
残念です〜。

岐阜市を代表する金華山の麓の三重塔と雪景色を撮影しました。

岡山県の吉備津神社の誰もいないこの道は吸い込まれそうな程
不思議な感覚に陥るのは何故だろう🤔
ゆっくり歩いてる人、ジョギングしてる人、ウォーキングしてる人
色々おるけどみんな気持ち軽そうに見えた😆
神聖な道なんだろなー😊

緑から赤へ

This is the Daigoji Buddhist temple in Kyoto. This photo highlights the contrast between the warm red temple and the chilly winter breeze. It really gives off the winter vibe as you stare in awe at the beauty of this scene. One is left seeking solace in their worship as the snow descends outside, covering everything.

お寺の塔と紅葉

コスモスとお寺の塔

Just a smaller post today. A photo that I took in Asakusa before the pandemic broke out. I remember eating some delicious ramen in the area as well. Hoping that everything returns back to normal by new years. Would love to visit Sensoji Temple this year if possible. Or at least some other shrine within range for Hatsumode. I still need to climb Mt. Fuji as well, but maybe in a couple more years. As long as I do it before I can't walk anymore lol

日本の秋。
柳谷観音さんの紅葉の手水舎。
彩りの違う紅葉を集め、来る人々の目を楽しませる趣向は、日本人ならではのおもてなしの心そのものだと感動した瞬間でした。

Some more photos I took at Todaiji Temple. The first statue is of Vaisravana 多聞天/毘沙門天, another of the Four Heavenly Kings, holding a staff and some sort of small pagoda,. The second statue is Cintamanicakra 如意輪観音, a bodhisattva. The third photo is a unfortunately poor quality photo of Vairocana, the Cosmic Buddha from my understanding. The rest of the photos are models of Todaiji's Great Buddha Hall from 800 and 300 years ago, and Nandai-mon, the Great South Gate. The pagoda is, from my understanding, a replica of one of the lost pagodas that used to be located at Todaiji Temple, but I believe was burnt down? I could be wrong about that though. Then last is a photo of the heads of Virudhaka 増長天left, and Dhrtarastra 持国天right, two of the Four Heavenly Kings. Lots of cool stuff to be seen at Todaiji! Definitely recommend it. My photos don't do it justice at all.

I found some photos of when I visited Todaiji Temple. I took a photo of the bronze lantern out front of the temple because I thought it looked really cool, but it's pretty crazy to think that the lantern is around 1,300 years old at this point. I also took some photos of a few of the statues inside the temple, the first being Akasagarbha 虚空蔵菩薩, one of the Eight Great Bodhisattva, and the second which took me forever to find the name of... being Virupaksa 広目天, one of the Four Heavenly Kings. I'm not sure what Virupaksa is made of but I think this statue is made of wood, although I could be wrong. It looks like a different material from the other statues inside the temple, although it's been quite a while since I visited and I can't recall exactly. All the statues are really awesome though. I'll have to upload some more photos later!

思わず見惚れてしまう美しさでした
