神戸「相楽園」の秋。燃えるようなモミジとつつじ？のように残る緑とのコントラストが素敵で、結婚式の前撮りもよくやってます。

So cool to see the color contrast of autumn leaves and ever-green leave at SORAKUEN, Kobe. Popular venue for weeding photo.

初投稿！きっぴぃと申します！
日本の秋、チャレンジします！

2020年11月、京都 瑠璃光院での１枚。
庭の美しい木々が写経机に反射して幻想的な世界を作り出していました。
特に枯れ落ちた銀杏と紅葉盛りのもみじが、「栄枯盛衰」〜人の世のはかなさを現しているようで、まさに絶景でした。

京都・奥嵯峨にて撮影です。

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。

雨が降ったあとの花の写真を撮ってみたく、彼岸花がだいぶ咲いていると聞いたので、写真を撮りに行きました。
場所は、奈良県御所市にある九品寺です。
カメラ初心者なので、どのような構図で撮れば綺麗に撮れるのかなど分からなくて、試行錯誤した結果撮れた中で自分のお気に入りがこの写真になります。

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!

Some photos I took at Nijo Castle in spring 2018. You can see the cherry blossoms in some of the photos just starting to bloom, but not quite in full bloom, and the rest of the gardens were really enjoyable as well. I really liked the gold decorations/designs on the buildings. The gate was also really cool. I believe it's called Karamon Gate although I'm not 100% sure on that. The moat around the castle was pretty neat as well, I can imagine it was a strong fortification, especially since it belonged to Tokugawa Ieyasu, although I'm not entirely sure about the rest of the castle's history. The photos of the moat and surrounding area were taken from on top of a small vantage point, and I wonder if it was originally some sort of turret, but I'm not sure about that either. Either way, I definitely recommend giving it a visit to anyone in Kyoto or anyone planning to visit Kyoto. I believe it was relatively close to the Golden Pavilion as well, so if you have the chance, why not?

A photo I took a few years ago during a trip to Osaka! A waterfall at Mino Park during late spring/early winter. I'd like to visit here again during autumn, as I imagine that the leaves around the waterfall and the rest of the area would look really beautiful. One thing I really liked about Osaka was the contrast of the city to this national park. Also there is tons of cool stuff to see near Dotonbori, especially with all the food vendors and stuff in the area. From my understanding, Mino Park is apparently one of Japan's smallest national parks but it was actually a pretty long walk to get to the waterfall. If I remember correctly it took about 40 minutes and we were moving at a pretty good pace. It was a good workout though lol! Hope I can visit again soon after the pandemic ends!

滋賀県の太郎坊宮お参りでアホほどしんどい階段上る途中で見上げると真っ赤でした。登り切ったら夫婦岩の隙間を通って本殿で「勝」一文字のお守りが買えます。

=秋の雨降る苔寺「西芳寺」=
夢窓国師による日本で最初の枯山水がある事でも有名な西方寺。朝方に写経を行った後に庭園をゆっくり周回できます。
全面にわたる苔は庭師が手入れを欠かさず苔の上にかかる紅葉も丁寧に取り除いておりました。
当日は小雨の降り頻る朝でありました為、薄暗い景色の中に生える赤と緑、聞こえる音などが非常に素晴らしくまた行きたいなと感じました。
