Taking opportunity of this weekend’s typhoon, I am importing my old photos to Aperture and struggling to sort them. I have found something with a definitely better weather.
Risshiri and Rebun are two small islands close to northernmost cape of Hokkaido. Shinto shrines there have appearance somewhat different to those in other parts of Japan.

And let it be my contribution to this week’s Show Me Japan.
Kurumazaki Shrine in Kyoto holds Mifune Matsuri every year is also famous for a smaller shrine in its precincts.
It is dedicated to artists and attracts many actors, musicians, comedians, and geisha. They either buy an official offering from a shrine (like a fence pale) or just glue a tag (fuda) with their name or photo directly to the shrine building.
