What a beautiful spot sg...and how well you've photographed this lovely temple.

What strikes me first is how absolutely crisp your image is....beautiful....the clarity and sharpness of every detail of this building is stunning. Wonderful color too...from the pale blue sky to the deep rich blue of the water. Like that you framed it out w/ the flowering tree right frame....all topped off w/ a perfect reflection.

Nicely putt together image sg!

    already 2 weeks back;
    next: a zoo, not too far (3hours drive);
    later a place you would like: the famous Claude Monet's garden in Giverny: (50 minutes from home!): tere are 85 iris varieties.....and many other flowers;

Very nice photo. You centered it well and with the reflection of the water. I like how you show the curve of the temple and the tree blossoms.

Very cool shot of the Japanese temple. I like how you captured the branches off the the right into the picture. You have obviously traveled to many places, how does this compare to others?

This is an excellent photograph, not only for its stunning clarity, but also for its well-balanced composition and creative geometry. Very well done and thank you for sharing.

Comment from nikman


I presume there being hardly any tourists there made you feel more at home and special? Your image is well composed and gives us a good look at the temple. Sharpness and exposure are fine. Nicely taken!

What a wonderful looking temple, the design of these buildings is truly to be marvelled at; and often (or always maybe?) surrounded with a lovely body of water too. Great angle for the shot taken with great clarity, lovely reflection of the temple in the water showing clearly, and that cherry blossom popping in too on the left for perspective - lovely shot.

Fred,
A very beautiful picture of this Japanese Temple with the perfect reflection on the water in front of it & the flowering Cherry tree on the right adding colour & beauty.. The clear blue sky making the perfect backdrop to show the details of the up curved roof. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
