Bitchu Kokubunji Pagoda

The famous 5-storied pagoda at Bitchu Kokubunji temple, Okayama prefecture.

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

I was expecting this shot! Impressive!

@Fred: Thanks Fred!

Nice detail in this difficult to photograph structure. These things are so dark that I always have a hard time with them.
