This photograph was taken at Kasyōzan Ryūge-in Miroku-ji Temple, where I captured a Buddhist statue against a backdrop of fresh greenery.The sight of the Buddha statue harmonizing with nature gave me a sense of calm. At Kasyōzan Ryūge-in Miroku-ji Temple, you can photograph the enormous tengu mask enshrined in the main hall from outside, utilizing natural light and shadows. Additionally, the stone statue of the crow tengu within the temple grounds is a recommended photo spot where you can capture solemn and mystical images with the backdrop of fresh greenery or autumn leaves.
