Muza-chan's Gate to Japan

Cherry blossoms and colorful umbrellas at Yasaka Shrine, Kyoto

Fri, April 26, 2013, by Muza-chan
On each of my visits to Japan, I have avoided the rainy season because for me it is tiring to walk in the rain... although some benefits exist, especially regarding the photography, because photos taken during rain are sometimes with a tint of magic...

So, from time to time, I welcome a soft rain and this spring we had quite a lot of rainy days, like in this photo from Yasaka Shrine in Kyoto, where I was inspired by all these colorful umbrellas....
