Fushimi Inari

SKU JPN-001

I woke up super early (5am?) to see the tori gates at Fushimi Inari Taisha and beat the crowds, yet the place was already crawling with people when I arrived. Somehow I didn’t know this before arriving, but there are hundreds of steps with a total vertical gain of around 750′ (230 M). After passing a dozen or so influencer people firmly entrenched in the lower sections of stairs, I pressed on higher, determined to capture my prize. With the temperature already around 90°F/32°C and 80% humidity, I was tempted to stop and unpack the camera gear, but the threat of being caught by the influencer hoard behind me goaded me upward. Drenched in sweat, I finally found a spot with the blend of picturesqueness and remoteness that I sought. Photography can be weird like that sometimes.

Getting the shot: I have a tiny set of tripod legs that screw on to the bottom of the camera for getting cool low-angle shots like this. Much easier to carry than a full size tripod around too.

After experimenting with several different printers and types of prints, and speaking with about a dozen different fine art photography gallery owners around the world to pry for their sources, I’ve chosen to work with a renowned print shop in the US who produces superior gallery-level prints. These are statement pieces with superior detail, rich pigments and gloss finishes that will not fade or yellow over time. I have tried several cheaper alternatives, and I feel that these prints best represent my work and will last for years to come.

All prints come with hardware for hanging and do not need any additional framing or components to be ready for display.

Canvas Prints are professional 1 1/2″ thick gallery-wrapped canvas wall art prints. A wire hanger is included as the standard option because they hang perfectly flush to the wall; a sawtooth hanger is a second option (by request only).

Fujiflex Silver Halide Prints use a process inspired by traditional darkroom photography, where light exposure activates unique silver halide crystals in the pigment. Chemical development then reveals the image with unmatched clarity, vibrant color, and smooth, continuous tones. If you’re wondering which print is best, this one is best.

Contact me directly if you desire a frame, specific size or specific editing style.

Allow 7-14 days for processing and production, and 5-7 days for shipping. If you desire a wooden crate or have questions, please ask here.

Due to the print and shipping costs, all sales are final. However, if you have any issues with your print(s), simply let me know and I will work directly with the printer to resolve any issues.
