The torii is a traditional Japanese gate usually found at the entrance of a Shinto shrine to mark the entrance to a sacred place. Contrary to tradition, this torii is found at the entrance to the Japanese Pavilion of EPCOT Center at the Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. I took this photo using my iPhone 6, while in the middle of a thunderstorm, and the park was gray and misty with rain falling down like crazy. Surprisingly, the dull and hazy background brought out the deep red paint of the torii creating a beautiful contrast in the photograph.
I love your work! Let me know if you have some equine photos, I’d love to feature them on my blog!

The rain and mist kinda veiled the background and brought out the red color of the torii. Thanks for dropping by and visit us again soon.
