DirtyGlassEye has added a photo to the pool:
Again, such a peculiar concept for a cemetery. But anything that fits the bill, besides, I can take a bit of variety every now and again (I say that even though I continually insist on pumping shots out from here after all this time). It's been a while since I posted anything from here and it's probably because of how poorly recieved my last one was. But there is still more to show.
I got my fstop just right for this one, I wanted it losing focus in the distance to give it the illusion it was much bigger then the small area it actually was. I expanded on this in editing by attempting to make the back rows taller then they actually were, was a trick that was harder to pull off then I initially thought. There was also a decent reflection on the table underneath the rows. With how often the colors of these buddhas change, I was not disappointed. The only drawback was it would prove difficult to combine exposures cause not one of them looked similar enough.
In editing I also toned down the visible projections on the floor, beautiful, but it detracted from the intended subject of the photo which I meticulously worked the focus on. This is a rather hard place to find in Tokyo as it's sitting in a smaller lot on a temple. But just ask an employee/guard, they'll know why you're there and let you in here.
