Nara Park: just the deer

We went and explored Nara Park. The big temple was under renovations at the moment, but it looked very similar to the inari shrine we went to in Kyoto so we weren't too fussed. Honestly, we just came to check out the deer and watch people act dumb and get bit and headbutted by deer as a result.

This post is just shots Michael got of the park area and the deer themselves. I have to say... They weren't in the best shape. There was a lot of mange on them, their horns were often missing or damaged, with a number actively bleeding. Others had foam around their mouths or their tongues out like they were having breathing challenges.

So they were cute... But it was mixed feelings. We wanted to capture the honest reality, so I haven't edited out the icky shots.Leggi altro
