[Photoblog] Buddha of Cliff


20131221_photoblog_budda of cliff

This buddha is Miroku-Magaibutsu buddha curved into
an approx. 30m-large rock face opposite to the River Uta.
This is made in the early Kamakura period, and a ceremony was held to consecrate
a newly made buddha statue with the presence of Emperor Gotoba.
It seems a local resident who was jogging around this area told Miki, the photographer
that the area will be lit up soon, which helped her to carry out evening picture shooting.
She didn’t have tripod for her camera though…^^;
