The corner of a vermilion pagoda roof with a small bell at its tip, against a white sky, with the sun shining through leaves at the top of the frame.

Kiyomizu-dera, Kyoto, Japan. 2025

A step to the side and a turn of the camera, and the pagoda became a corner of red roof against a white sky. The small bell hanging from the eave was the detail I wanted sharp.

I took four frames of this pagoda in four minutes. I’ve kept them all because each one sees it differently.
