Description
A lovely scene of the shrine in Fukuoka city. Tall pine trees frame the view, casting a dappled shade across the grounds below. Lanterns on tall pillars flank the entrance gate of the building, with two women in colorful kimono strolling past a stone lion statue at right. Beautiful bokashi shading in the sky and ground.
