PUBLIC MARKS from rike_ with tag buddhism

After moving to Kamakura in 1993, I became intrigued by the many deities and faces of Japanese Buddhism and Shintoism. There are dozens of temples and shrines near my home, many dating from the 8th to 13th centuries, many open to the public. There are now 2,000 photos in this library, ranging from the treasures of Kamakura to those of Nara, Kyoto, and elsewhere in Japan.
