A woman in a patterned kimono stands quietly at the side of a path beneath a long row of vermilion torii gates in Kyoto, while several visitors walk through the centre of the frame. The repeating orange-red pillars create a tunnel effect, contrasting stillness on the right with movement deeper into the scene.

Waiting in Kyoto.
