Torii gate Study I, lake Biwa - Limited Edition of 5 Print

This is the famous Shirahige shrine torii gate, standing near the shore over lake Biwa in Shiga prefecture. I wanted to visit this particular place for so many years now, and I finally had a chance during a week-long trip I made in the area in Winter. This image looks really peaceful, but unfortunately the place is so famous that it was flooded with tourists, visiting for the New Year. I spent the night in my car a few meters away and positioned myself two hours before sunrise to be able to sit in the exact position I wanted, and even if I was starving and freezing on that morning the conditions were perfect and I was able to make exactly the image I had in my mind. This is something very uncommon in landscape photography, and because of that this image holds a special place in my heart. The original is printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Satin 310 gsm 100% Cotton white satin-finish paper and manually signed at the bottom.
