Photography 101: Architecture

The first image was taken in the early fall a few years ago while the other two photos were taken a few days before spring time 8 months ago.

NARITA-SAN SHINSHOJI TEMPLE Narita-san (成田山 "Narita mountain") Shinshō-ji (新勝寺 "New victory temple") is a Shingon Buddhist temple located in central Narita, Chiba, Japan. It was founded in 940 by Kanchō Daisōjō, a disciple of Kōbō Daishi. It is a lead temple in the Chisan branch (Chisan-ha 智山派) of New Shingon (Shingi Shingon 新義真言宗), includes a large complex of buildings and grounds, and is one of the best-known temples in the Kantō region. It is dedicated to Fudō myōō ("Unmovable Wisdom King", known as Ācala in Sanskrit), who is usually depicted holding a sword and rope and surrounded by flames. Often called a fire god, he is associated with fire rituals. (Wikipedia)

NARITA-SAN DAITO A daito or large pagoda daitō is the only type of tahōtō (many-jewelled pagoda) to retain the original structure with a row of pillars or a wall separating the corridor (hisashi) from the core of the structure, abolished in smaller pagodas. Daitō used to be common but, of all those ever built, only a few are still extant. (Wikipedia)

“ How you look at a situation is very important, for how you think about a problem may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. When you get discouraged or depressed, try changing your attitude from negative to positive and see how life can change for you. Remember, your attitude toward a situation can help you to change it — you create the very atmosphere for defeat or victory." – Franco Harris

      1. I have to be honest. I’ve forgotten about this. Ooops! But now that I’ve known about it again, I am totally going there. 😀 By the way, I hope I find a way to make mine different, but I can’t promise not to steal the way you photograph it. Ahihihi 🙂
