through the gateways - 鳥居を越えて

This photo really lives up to the name of your blog. A man in a box.

Thanks Pfong!!
Hehehe. Though it looks like a box, these are a series of gates. :-)

Ah, lurking again; waiting for someone to come along so you can get another great (and well timed) shot!

@Pfong: Boxman hehe :-) Very well noticed!
I love this unique style you have, focussing on a small object in the distance.

unique!

great, very unusual, like it.

That's cool - minimalistic and pinpoint focussed!

Great perspective and framing.

Nice. I'm having a little trouble with the perspective.. looks like one hell of a steep set of stairs. Unusual composition - quite striking.

I love the depth on this one! and then this dark silhouette at the very end surrounded by highlights! really nicely captured!

Thanks Micki, Kris, Hechicera, Jazzy, Anton, Jonathan, Jamie and ChriZ!!
These gateways are suitable for the entrance to the shrine, I guess. :-)

I love the shot but I would have loved a few more details about where it is and what it is that we are seeing?
Very interesting photo anyway

Thanks Nathalie!!
This stairway lead to HIE-JINJYA shrine. And the stairway is covered with many Torii, the gateways, so ot looks like a tunnel. :-)

Wow, great composition!

I really believe this an excellent perspective. I believe the details that you provided are all we really need. Thank you very much for sharing this photograph...probably my favorite of yours.

Cool effect of all the structures constricting the human image.

Thanks JoeCow, Joe and DeRAVIz!!

Great perspective here Tetsu!

Great Shot. I really had to have a closer look to understand, where this guy is walking through...like it!

Thanks Stardog Champion and Holger!!

really like the framing in this photo: terrific image.

Hi Tetsu, I couldn't visit since and a while and it's great to see all your new photos. I love this one. Keep up good job.

Thanks Moncef!!

very good composition, I like it

Thanks Otomi!!

I've been scouting around your site. I got here from your comment on mine. Thank you, by the way. This one, among many, caught my eye! Great work. Very inspiring. Makes me want to go out and shoot. And visit your country.
