This doe was easily the sweetest of the many deer in Nara. She let me sit right by her and (very carefully) pet her and, of course, snap this shot. It turns out some of them are nicer when you don’t have senbei for them!

Walking up the hill through ~3000 shrines dedicated to God Inari. It is always a busy walkway filled with people during August. I was lucky enough to get some 2-3 seconds of free passage. The shot was taken on One Plus 5 (Pro mode).

⛩️ Sanctuary of Fushimi Inari-taisha ⛩️ To get to the fox sanctuary, 233 meters above sea level, you walk through a 4 kilometer trail that runs under hundreds of sacred portals (or gates), better known as Torii. The path takes a few hours, but once at the top, satisfaction is immense 😎

In the summer heat, we welcomed the cool coverings of the bamboo plants. Off to the side, before the main path, I found the darkness of the grove a compliment to the bright sun outside and took a photographer of these plants.
