The main shrine at Jakko Falls.

This color photograph was taken in Nikko, Japan just after sunrise and shows a distant mountain and clouds bathed in orange sunlight, while the trees in the foreground remain deep in shadow. The moon in the sky is quite visible in the morning light above the mountain.

I wrote this #haiku #poem for the #ImageAndVerse Art Challenge:
In morning silence
Dawn’s golden light paints the peak
New day, new hope born.

Today I learned these iconic monkeys are from here 🙈🙊🙉.
Known as the three wise mokeys
(Mizaru, Kikazaru and Iwazaru)
You will find them all over Nikko.
Now you know why we have those emojis to begin with.

My son approaches a small white shrine with a traditional Japanese roof. Moss creeps up the path. Dormant trees in the foreground lead toward a large stand of Japanese cedar in the distance. Dozens of statues of the deity Jizo wearing red scarves and hats appear in the distance.
Stone stairs lead up a hill strewn with Japanese cedar. Statues of the deity Jizo lead off to the right in the background.
Dozens of statues of the deity Jizo wearing red scarves and hats line a path along Kanman-ga-Fuchi Abyss. Large cedar line a hillside to the left above the statues. The Daiya River rages below to the right.

One of hundreds of statues dedicated to Jizo, guardian deity of children, along Kanman-ga-fuchi Abyss.
A rural Japanese coffee shop in the resort city of Nikko. A tree grows out of Central courtyard on one of a asymmetrical, split roof.
The Daiya River and homes along its shoreline sit in the shadow of Nakimushiyama.
Gray tile steps lead to a Screened-sliding front door. To the right sits a carved owl and a dormant bush. A bit of snow melts in the shadows next to the stairs.

A young woman walks down from the Nikko World Heritage site toward the town below along a steep avenue lined with impossibly tall cedar and bamboo.
An intricate gold and white building at Toshugu Shrine.
Gojunoto Pagoda sits behind a massive gate in the distance near Toshogu Shrine. In the foreground a young man walks toward a massive cedar tree while gazing off in the distance.
A man stairs up at the famed three monkey bas relief frieze. Timbered framing reaches toward the curved apex of the roof line. A traditonal roof in green (copper) gently slopes out of frame.
Towering Japanese Cedar, impossibly detailed shrines, a perfect pagoda and Nikko's three monkeys frieze.
These are some tallboys. So click on through for the full view.

A view of Nikko's red-lacquered Kamibashi Bridge on a snowy winter's day. The bridge spans the cold-looking Daiya River in a gently curving arch, while on either riverbank, leafless trees and tall pines crowd together, their branches plastered with snow. Snowflakes continue to fall across the scene; beyond, low mountains are hazy and indistinct, and the sky above is overcast

A two toned pink and beige timber-framed 1890 train station with a taxi cab straight out of the 1990s out front. Mount Nyoho off in the distance.
Apparently the internet has misattributed who built Nikko Station (some wrongly say Frank Lloyd Wright designed it, it was actually Akashi Torao). Nonetheless, it rules.

Fire drill training tower in Nikko under a brooding sky. Stacked staircases and hard geometry give it a stark, cinematic presence. Functional design, quiet intensity.

A view of the Hokkedo, or the Hall of the Lotus Sutra, at Nikko's Rinno-ji Temple, on a quiet winter's day. Leafless trees screen our view of the red-lacquered building; a layer of fresh white snow lies across the ground and the rooftop of the temple. The scene is deserted, and everything seems quiet.
