Black-And-White Photo Competition : Entry Number 112

So quiet that you can hear the silence. Narrow depth of field with beautiful bokeh, which almost appears to be painted. This takes our minds away ...

Wow what a great honor being chosen for a MOE from over 650 photos! Big thanks to the judges for their choice. Photo was taken at Asakusa Sensoji Temple in Tokyo, Japan. Built in 645 AD it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Japan. Usually photographed from the outside in I tried a different perspective from the inside out. The thousands of visitors in the background made for and interesting bokeh. Photo taken with an Olympus EP2 and Voigtlander Nokton f/1.1 shot at f/1.1
