2006.10.22 Light and rain in the temple

Path of Philosophy, Kyoto, Japan

The small Kuala Lumpur gallery is finished, and I'm back to procesing the Kyoto pictures again. I hope to have the gallery up at the end of this week, but ... well, we'll see.

I wasn't ready in time to steady myself for this shot, but I like it in spite of the blur.

Unfortunately I can't now recall the name of this temple which is along the Path of Philosophy. This is the gate as seen from the outside.

Superb composition. A mood of casually walking in the rain is enhanced by the blur.

I can see I'll have to try to blur a few more shots! (I'll call it "art".)

Moody... Agree with Candice, the blur created a sense of mystery, kind of haunting too. From your angle, we looked at a distance and wondered about the two and what's lying behind that gate.

I like the blur, I think it adds to the mysterious feeling of the shot!
