Dawning Friendship at Itsukushima Jinja Otorii
Itsukushima Shrine - Miyajima, Japan
In the early hours of the morning, I ventured to Itsukushima Shrine, seeking the Itsukushima Jinja Otorii at low tide. To my surprise, a photography group had already gathered, and the lady on the left, caught my eye. I discreetly captured this shot from the sidelines, sparking my curiosity about the group's identity. It turned out to be none other than the talented photographers Daniel Kordan and Iurie Belegurschi leading the way. Since that serendipitous encounter, I've forged lasting friendships with these photographers and embarked on countless captivating photo tours. This image symbolizes the start of a remarkable journey fueled by shared passions. Photo © copyright by Rich Voninski.
