Abstract Architectural Detail Make Torii Gates Look Like An Accordian

The torii gates at the Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine in Kyoto, Japan are unique and attract thousands of visitors annually. Spaced but a few feet apart, they remind me of bright red orange “slinkies” spread out over the mountainsides. Those that care can walk through these torii gate tunnels for lengths of time as there are thousands of them. By the excitement and smiles on faces I got the impression the mood here is one of fun, happiness, gaiety and “I need to get my picture taken inside this tunnel”. I had precisely the same feelings. While almost all remained inside the torii gate tunnels, my adventurous spirit guided me to explore the visuals afforded outside the tunnels. I was not disappointed. This architectural abstract photo painting was created from a reference picture outside the torii gates making them appear to be sort of like a giant accordion. May you enjoy the musical beauty too.
