Description
The moon, partially obscured by clouds, sits inside a Stone Lantern on the shores of Itsukushima, the Shinto shrine. One of the three original views of Japan
From wikipedia:
[link]
"The current shrine has been in its present state since 1168 when funds were provided by the warlord Taira no Kiyomori. The shrine's construction, consisting of pier-like structures built over the bay, is due to the holy status that the island once commanded. Commoners were historically not allowed to set foot on the island, and had to approach by boat, entering through the gate that appears to float. Beside the shrine is a noh stage."
I found this picture very hard to categorise into one of DA's submission categories.
