I am trying to find new angles on photographing Japanese buddhist temples, believing that the architecture holds the fundamental principals of buddhism in themselves.
If one is exposed to these places over and over, I am confident one will over time become a better human being. I would like to show these things to people unable to visit themselves.
The image is converted to black and white, contrast enhanced in CS2 curves along with a little vignetting at the top. I also added some sharpening.
