Shot a few of these in Kyoto on February 11 at a ceremony of the Agon-Shu

religion. Followers threw over 30 million prayers, each written on a bamboo

stick, into massive bonfires to the sound of Kodo drumming and new age

music. Capturing the whole scene from the "visitors" viewpoints proved

difficult so I went for prayer bundles entering the flames instead.
