2006 Temple Way, a photo from Kanagawa, Kanto

Photographer's Note

Atmospheric at dusk, lantern-lined road leading to the Shinto shrine in the village of Moto Hakone on the banks of the lake Ashino.

Anyone who has ever watched the adventures of the legendary Japanese hero Musashi Miyamoto will recognise the forest of dark tall cedar trees.

Two more photos from Hakone in WS.

Hi Kasia,i don't know who is the japanese hero that i read in your note,but the pic seems a road to a fairy tale place. Great choice of the moment,the atmopshere and the lights of dusk are truly magical. I like a lot the golf field view in the WS too,perfect quality as usual! Have a good night and thanks,Luciano

Magiczna atmosfera tej sciezki prowadzacej przez las o zmierzchu. Swietny klimat. Ciekawe tez zdjecia w warsztacie, a szczegolnie kompozycja z polami golfowymi. Wyglada jak zdjecie robione z drona choc tych kilkanascie let temu trudno bylo o te urzadzenia.
Ciekawy reportaz
pozdrawiam
Piotr

Hi Kasia
A picturesque sight of rows of Japanese street lanterns on an empty path and their warm illumination. This is quite a sight come dusk! The colours and composition just pulls you into the image with just adequate clarity which evokes the special atmosphere of tranquility and very relaxing to look at.......
Great work, Congrats
Best regards

Hi Kasia,
Good depth effect with this perspective, good effect with these lights, well managed the exposure, a pleasant invitation to go to the temple ...

Witaj Kasiu, Fotografia jak z bajki. Byłam w Hakone, ale w ciagu dnia i nie pamiętam tej drogi, ale widziałam gdzie indziej podobne. Fantastycznie wygladają te zapalone latarnie. Wydaje sie, ze krzewy sa przyprószone lekko sniegiem. Zdjecia w Workshopach tez bardzo ładne, ale to jest zachwycające.

Pozdrawiam MAłgorzata

Hello Kasia,
The beautiful lanterns spreading their warm light make up for the lack of people. The rows of lamps in the park create a good atmosphere, which I can appreciate even without knowing a thing about that famous hero. The WS photos are also interesting. I would have expected a view of paddy fields where I now find a golf course. Maybe a sign of the times?
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Kasia
An attractive composition in the semi darkness of the forest road. The lights lined up on both sides add a lot to the ambiance of the photograph. The WS pictures are wonderful too with excellent colours and POV.
Best wishes from India

Hello Kasia,

Since 2006 is much changed.
Atmospheric at dusk, lantern-lined road leading to the Shinto shrine in the village of Moto Hakone on the banks of the lake Ashino are wonderful to look at.
But you did wonderful.
Perspective and depth are perfect.
An excellent composition with nice colours and sharpness.
Very well presentation. TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hello Kasia,
A very atmospheric shot!
The many lanterns as mall works of art at close distance from each other lead visitors well to the shrine.
Best regards, Paul

Hi dear Kasia

So fantatsic secne in the early eveving, so nice image as there was nobody. I guess you waited for this moment until other tourists were dissapeared. I am so happy that you still have so much sympathy with Japan.

All the best and have a good day! Takero

Hello Kasia,

I was surprised how brief your note was. Are you feeling right? :) Joking apart its a nice nice nocturne, with special regard to the technology uses, which required maximum attention on technical details.

Have a nice evening!
Gy.

Hi Kasia

I have been on this path and you've captured the quiet, reflective mood here superbly. Good sharpness and linear perspective afforded by the path with nice repetition of the lamps. Tfs!

macjake (96157) 2019-07-22 6:23

Hi Kasia
I have to say, I wasn't expecting to see a Golf Course in your WS! But hey, why not right :) Similar to what your note suggests, I thought at first this scene was straight out of some fairy tale book or a scene from a movie. It just has that look and feel to it. Very pretty indeed. I like it. everything looks to have a blue tinge to it, quite the place.
cheers
Craig

Hi Kasia,
I like the atmosphere of this tree-lined avenue lit by the lanterns in what seems to be the Blue Hour ! It kind of looks mysterious, and seems to prepare you for the arrival to the famous shrine.
Lovely photo of the golf course too, seen from above.
I wonder why the grass looks so dry ?
Kindest regards.

Hello Kasia, this temple way looks so mysterious, it is located in a forest area. The street lamps lined up on each side of the road illuminate the entrance. Good depth, sharp post
