A stunning view of the lush groves and woodlands of Kyoto, Japan, captured during a trip to the city's temples in 2003. The foliage, including sycamore and oak trees and dense shrubbery, covers the slope leading up to the city hall, creating a natural oasis in the midst of the urban environment. The utility poles and fences serve as a reminder of the modern world beyond this natural beauty.
