  • A walk along part of the women's pilgrimage route at Mt. Koya. Historically, women weren't allowed into a certain area of the mountain complex, so they had to go around using these trails. <br /> <br /> There were lots of spiderwebs, mosquitos and mud puddles, men can be such jerks sometimes.

  • Kurama Fire Festival. October 22, 2010.
  • 2010 Fire Festival in Kurama, just north of Kyoto. Every year thousands of tourists join the townspeople to throw an event which is touted as one of Japan's 3 most eccentric festivals. Anyone who's stayed from beginning to end will understand just how exciting it is to follow the procession of people carrying shrines and 8 foot tall torches down the street while shouting "sairyou sairei!" the entire way. Though most people return home by about midnight in order to catch the last train, i made the one hour uphill bike ride from Kyoto and managed to enjoy it until the very end.

  • A rainy day at Mimurotoji, just outside of Kyoto, famous for its 10,000 hydrangeas, but the droplets created a good opportunity to play with my macro lens.
