Narita-san Yokohama Temple (Noge Fudoson)

Walked around Narita-san Yokohama Temple, sometimes called Noge Fudoson, the other day and took some pictures












This temple has two parts – one at the base of the hill and one on top. All along the hillside joining the two secions of the temple are small statues that have been placed amoung the rocks and crags.
Most of these statues appear to be either depictions of Myou, the five kings knowledge, or foxes, which usually represent Inari (Goddess of farmers, fishermen, and merchants).

This is an interesting series of pics. I think you need to so something to make the statues stand out more from the background, either in post-processing, or better, by reshooting in different light or with a narrower depth of field.
