Rickety #Torii gate at #Meotogi #Shrine in #Shinjuku ward #Tokyo #Japan #日本 #東京 #新宿区 #鳥居 #夫婦木神社

This shrine is located in a building that looks just like all the other buildings here, two-to-three-storey, economic boom era, built tightly next to each other. This gate is in a gap where a couple of steps lead up to a path towards a staircase (presumably to the shrine, I didn't venture that far). The gate is made of wood but thin, round sticks of it were used, which is a rare look. There are two smaller green-tiled roofs stretched on either side but there is nothing underneath to be sheltered.

Aside from a few tweaks here and there, my homepage redesign is done!

Thanks to my good friend Alex O. Smith for the casual photoshoot in Tokyo last month. Here’s the picture I’m using for the top page.

Long exposure shot on a buzzy main road of Shinjuku in Tokyo from a bridge over the road, at night. Only the light trails of the cars are visible on the road in the foreground due to the long exposure. Skyscrappers and buildings covered in colourful neons are recognisable in the background.

We went to #Shinjuku to see the giant 3d cat billboard and #Godzilla head atop the Toho cinema. Very cute.
Here are a few photos from that stroll. (Giant cat not included.)

A moodier photo in black and white with Godzilla's head and talons looming over a building, looking down at the photographer.

#Zuijinmon at #AnaHachimangu #Shrine in #Shinjuku ward #Tokyo #Japan #日本 #東京 #新宿区 #穴八幡宮 #隋神門

A two-storey gate, wood painted bright red. The design is two display cubes to the left and right of the entrance respectively. I didn't check to see which scary sculptures are hidden within. The cubes are boarded up like a cage and this picture was taken from too far away to zoom in. There is a couple standing right inside the entrance, actually just behind the gate. On top of this ground level is another one with a balcony going all the way around. It's topped with a pointy and tiled roof in dark gray. There are trees around it and a couple obscure the edges of the gate. The weather is overcast.

The #bell at #Shōjuin in #Shinjuku ward #Tokyo #Japan #日本 #東京 #新宿区 #正受院 #梵鐘

Positioned to the side of the temple and at the end of a parking lot. There is a car parked to the right of it. To the left and in the back are multi-storey residential buildings, headstones from the adjacent cemetery, and trees. The sky is bright, yet a bit overcast. The bell hangs on a typical open gazebo structure made from wood with a pointed tiled roof. The whole structure sits atop a masonry foundation with stairs leading up the front.

#ChanokiInari #Shrine in #Shinjuku #Tokyo #Japan #日本 #東京 #新宿区 #茶ノ木稲荷神社

The shrine is located on the edge of a steep hill, space in front of it is scarce, so this was shot with a wide angle lens pointed slightly upwards. So it misses the bottom section and makes the arched roof look bigger than in reality. It's a medium-sized shrine built with wood timber-framed. The frames are red, the cages l canvases white.

#Chōzenji, a Buddhist temple living on the edge. #Japan #Tokyo #Shinjuku #長善寺 #日本 #東京 #新宿区

I took this picture over a big fence shielding off the construction site in the foreground. It's more of a hole at this point with its greatest feature, a big crane on the left, so big it didn't fit entirely into the picture. Where the site ends comes a sizable jump in elevation laying bare the foundations of the buildings on higher ground. There are larger buildings to the left and to the right dwarfing at the center the old temple, right on the edge. Because the angle is up there is lots of sightly overcast sky in the shot with the sun shining in my direction. It creates interesting light.
