A view of the grounds at Kyoto's Kamigamo Jinja on a snowy winter's day. Walking separately, two visitors in warm-looking coats approach the Honden Sanctuary along a rough path broken in the shallow layer of snow lying across the ground. The Honden Sanctuary stands to the left; snow sticks to the sweeping curved rooftops of the building, contrasting with the intense red of the exterior. On the right, snow covers the ground and clogs the branches of trees. Beyond, faint shadowy shapes of more trees blend in with an overcast sky

Snow falls on Kyoto's Toji Temple on a dark winter's evening. In the foreground, a female figure in traditional clothing carries a child on her back; the pair is wrapped up against the cold under her heavy hanten winter coat. She is leaving the temple grounds and just passing the chozu-ya, the covered area for purification, on her left. Just behind her, another visitor is headed toward the temple, carrying a bamboo umbrella over their shoulder. Tracks in the fresh snow lead around a stone lantern on the left, and toward a torii gate marking the entrance to the temple. A line of short evergreens stands just beyond the gate, buried under a layer of snow; beyond, the bare branches of tall leafless trees are clogged with snow and frost. Above everything stands the five-story pagoda of Toji Temple, its series of curved stacked rooftops covered in snow. The night sky is a cold dark blue, and snow continues to fall across the scene
