Sunlight playing hide and seek at the Torii

In spring 2023 we went to the Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine in Kyoto, Japan. It has thousands of red gates called Torii. Sunlight casts interesting light and shadow patterns.

 

I processed a paintery and a realistic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
