Even though the peak of the Autumn season had already passed in Kyoto, it was still possible to find some incredible places such as Komyoji (光明寺), where colours were ranging from green to yellow, orange and vivid red.

When taking photos in Kyoto, the challenge is to get a clean shot without anyone in the photo. In this particular case, I arrived on location 1h before it opened and people were already queueing! Then something I had never witnessed before happened: when the gates finally opened, people were actually racing to be in best position to take a photo! I thought I was hardcore but I’m going to review my standards after this experience!
