I'd gone out to the mountains with Paul Barr today, intending to retrace the steps of last week's temple hopping in the mountains of south-western Kyoto, but we were so consumed by the beauty at the first stop, the Yoshiminedera Temple (about which I still have 500+ photos from last week to sift through) that we didn't do much else.

But still, in the late afternoon on the way home, between episodes of getting soaked in the rain, we did happen upon a small temple that we took a few minutes to explore.

I've got such a backlog of photos from the last week or so to check out and post... photographing autumn colors in Kyoto is like shooting fish in a barrel... with dynamite.
