Torii gates at sunrise

Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha) is an important Shinto shrine in Kyoto that is famous for its thousands of torii gates leading up to the top of Mount Inari. The shrine is dedicated to Inari, the Shinto god of rice, and many fox statues, believed to be the messengers of Inari, can be seen throughout the grounds, As I approached the summit the sun starting hitting the torii gates, making them glow as though lit from within.
