Fushimi Inari Shrine is the most famous of several thousands of shrines dedicated to Inari across Japan. Inari is the Shinto god of rice, and foxes are thought to be his messengers. Therefore, many fox statues can be found at Inari shrines.
Fushimi Inari Shrine is also famous for the more than 5000 torii gates, offerings by worshippers, that cover the hiking trails of Inarisan, the wooded mountain behind the shrine's main buildings. It takes about two hours to walk along the whole trail.

Hallo Attila!

Greetings from autumnal wet and cool Germany!

Zdravo Attila. How would I love to go to Japan- a place that has enchanted me since childhood. I see the little fellow is enthralled by it all. A nice intimate shot amongst all that brilliant red. Pozdrav prijatelju. Klaudio.

Ciao Attila,
la prospettiva a il rosso, un colpo d´occhio !
Ciao, ci vediamo, Christian

Hi Attila,
This looks like a fascinating place and I would like to visit it one day. The red pillars with the black writing and the black at the bottom make for an eye catching subject. I like that you have included the two people also capturing their memories and they give good scale.
Regards
Wanda

Hi Attila
Intéressant la construction de ce "tunnel" rouge avec les inscriptions, jolie scéne de la maman et de son petit bout avec l'appareil photo
Have a nice weekend for you

Szia Attila!
Nem volt könnyű eljutni idáig, de végre írhatok néhány gondolatot erről az érdekes fotóról. Nagyszerűen kaptad el a hely atmoszféráját, a kompozíció nagyon jól sikerült. Az időzítés ugyancsak remek, az előtérben látható jelenet kifejező és bensőséges. Gratulálok, ismét egy nagyszerű fotó. Szép hétvégét!

This is a great, typically japanese scene.
I love the mement when the father translates his son the specific character of this architecture or history ...we can just guess...and then takes a photo to stop this magic moment!
Great work Attila!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gr., Aleksander

Hi Attila,
great catch. Always funny to see how people want to get a picture of them self in remarkable situations.
The red rolls of paper form a great decor.
Regards, Gerrit

rigoletto (26424) 2008-10-05 1:22

Hi Attila,
The "closed" atmosphere here is very well emphasized with your tight framing. This natural bordering with red is so well thought. And the self-photographing couple adds life to the place.

Deniz

Szia Ati!!
Érdekes kép. Ez a rengeteg betű a piroson, hát nem semmi hatása van!!! Nagyon jó a nézőpont. Grat hozzá!!
Üdv, Zsú

Jakab (3472) 2008-10-07 12:25

Szia Attila!
Csak bámulok. A hely különlegességét, a kiváló expozíciót, a meghitt szülői gesztust - ez utóbbi, azt hiszem, a világon mindenütt egyforma.
Üdv

Ciao Attila.
Ti voto l'ultima, ma potrebbe essere la penultima o la prima.
Hai una galleria fantastica, di altissima qualità.
Ti inserisco tra gli autori "preferiti", pensa un pò!
Alla prossima

Ciao Attila,
ottima immagine con una inquadratura perfetta per evidenziare il bell'effetto grafico della ripetizione degli elementi. Molto bella la scena inclusa.
E' stato un vero piacere conoscerti e grazie per la piacevole compagnia e i tuoi affascinanti racconti di viaggio.
Buon weekend
Anna

manada (6237) 2008-10-11 1:35

Ciao Attila
le tue foto sono sempre splendide e ben presentate.
Bellissimo questo "tunnel" dal colore arancione forte, ottima prospettiva e bel momento familiare.
Cari saluti
Freddy

josepmarin (33861) 2008-10-11 3:35

Hi Attila,
Fantastic graphical effect in this capture, the setting takes advantage of the good perspective of this structure that looks like a tunnel, and the vivid colors add a great strength to the composition.
In addition, this mother with her son taking a self-portrait it is an excellent detail of life and feeling, with a great spontaneity.
Good work.
Friendly regards,
Josep

edytungkal (4519) 2008-10-12 18:11

I think this is one of your best compositions, so spontaneous and very original....the red toriis with Japanese's characteres frame it perfect and the woman-shooting with a boy just a nice bonus. I like this shot Attila friend, thanks :-)

best regards
daniel

parbo (11000) 2008-10-13 14:27

Hello Attila,

This gallery seems have amazing potentials with its splendidly red colored columns. You captured an extraordinary scene with your experienced photography skill. I like your way adding parent and child busy for capturing another scene. Wonderful, congratulations.

Friendly Regards,

Hello Attila,
Long time....
This photo brings me good memories of the years in Japan. I went to that place with a film P&S .... I wish I could go again soon.
Lovely capture.
take care

Hát igen, ez a kép kihagyhatatlan lett volna a toriik alatt! Tetszik, hogy kanyarog az út (bár nem tudom, mennyire vannak ott egyenes részek..), és vele együtt a kapuk is rajtuk a feliratokkal. Kiváló a fókusz és a kompzíció is a japán túristákkal! Kíváncsi lennék, mi (ki) került még rá a képükre.. ((:
