Japan Bamboo Forest pathway
There is only one pathway through the Bamboo Forest and it is usually very busy with Insta photographers and tourists. This shot, looking west, was taken in the late afternoon which was less busy and brighter than earlier in the day.
Photography Tips
It's about finding your best spot to suit the conditions - primarily to get high and use whatever light is getting through the upper branches. Embrace the people to give scale to the photo.
Travel Information
