Luke Zeme Photography
Temple in the mountains, Japan
My time in Japan was only a week and whilst there I had a rail pass which allows you unlimited travel on their trains, including their famous bullet train system. If you go there I highly recommend getting one :-) I traveled down to Kyoto and stayed in the Gion District known for it's Geisha, traditional architecture and food and a slower paced Japanese lifestyle compared to Tokyo.
Pictured here is Kiyomizu-dera Temple, world heritage listed, which I visited at sunset. After exploring along with everyone else who I found to be amazingly polite like the rest of the country I setup to capture the scene. I waited till the sun was completely gone and the moon lit the clouds from behind to capture this temple from a vantage point above the tree line. Far off in the distance you can See Kyoto in the valley which runs along a river and has lots of little canals that go through the city. Many of the streets are cobbled and exploring them is like stepping into the past, a truly exciting experience and cant wait to return again.
