Kyoto nightscape 14: Nijojo Castle sentry tower and western Kyoto

Inside the wall is darkness. Looking in, not much has changed in 400 years; Looking out, not much has stayed the same.

2 nils { 01.14.05 at 2:01 am }: It was five seconds at f/5.6 at ISO 50. Obviously, there are spotlights on the wall, so the details are washed out of the white part. Trade-off.

I’ve been registered at Flickr for a long time as kyotonils, just haven’t spent much time there.
