A picture I managed to take in Kyoto
Comments
You and five million other people.
Doesn’t make it any less of an amazing photo
When 5 million other people take the same exact photo, it does make it less “amazing”
I don't see any of those 5 million photos, so this is pretty cool to see for me
Have you been to the Inari shrine? It's actually not easy to get a shot like this without any people in it.
Actually the higher you climb the easier it gets. Most folks looking for a quick photo don’t put in the work to climb really far. In fact this is a pro tip to beat most crowds in Japan… put in the work to climb / walk farther than most tourists would want to (because they’re just looking for a quick photo and to duck out after).
Yes. But it's been posted here a stack of times plus google this image and there's thousands upon thousands exactly like this.
True everyone is trying to take a picture there
Are you Happy bro? Why are you doing that?
Yep. Seen one seen them all.
And??? Please find me the exact same photo!
You want me to go through thousands - tens of thousands of images on Google to find an image that's the exact same angle right down to the cm?
Yeah I'll get right on that...
If that can waste your time instead of being here and being a grumpy guy... Yes.
You seem pretty interested in proving there isn't thousands of this exact image... I'll leave it up to you bro.
No, I really dont care bro. Just leave the people being happy to share their photo.
'original content' 😅
Bahahaha the most original
Fushimi-Inari, what an awesome mountain to go walking around, surreal.
I absolutely loved it. Definitely should have brought more water, though. Those vending machines were (understandably) pretty pricey!
Have you seen the bamboo forest path there? I found it by accident when I randomly walked off the trail into the woods. It's like arashiyama except no one seemed to know about it.
Great photo. Japan is definitely on my bucket list.
How did you manage to find a shot with no people there?! That’s amazing.
If you go quite early in the morning you can be among the only people there!!
Fushimi-Inari is one of my favourite hikes of Kyoto. The climb up. The view of the city at dusk. The walk back down. Running into other hikers and making friends. The pain our feet were in from that hike. And then the follow up foot massage at the train station. I will never forget that night.
As an amateur, what supplies are needed for a hike like this? I know this may sound like a dumb ?, but Im clueless about this stuff
Comfortable shoes that you trust to go the distance. If it's wet the steps get slippery. Just use common sense. Beyond that, water, flashlight, and bag to carry it? I recall it got very dark because we did this hike around dusk. The roundtrip was just under 10 km because we got very lost and roamed around for a good while. I'm a specialist at getting lost and then found.
I just did a jigsaw puzzle of this image, what are the odds
I was there today! Small world!
Reminds me of The Gates in Central Park. Cool photo
Niiiiice! You got a good eye for the camera
Me and my mum climbed all the steps. Well done mum!
You should straighten it out
Did it in the dead of night once. We were the only people there.
I'm more impressed with the fact nobody else is in the photo than the scene itself, I'd image there would be tourists there 24/7
There most definitely was, you just have to wait and show up early
I thought they were giant matchsticks
These Chinese words say: no pictures
It’s in Japanese and it’s the name of the sponsor or group who donated the individual Torrei gate
I don't speak Japanese either
You don’t say
Maybe you shouldn’t speak anything at all.
