  A view of the Giant Buddha of Kamakura in Japan. This photograph was taken by Jim Epler at 10:01 PM on 5/16/2007 in Kamakura, JPN at the local shrine. It is cataloged under the terms travel, architecture, art, signs & symbols and parks & fountains in this photography database.

  This image was recorded on digital media using a Canon EOS Rebel v300 (Ti) camera with a Canon 17-40mm f/4 L lens stopped to f 11 and exposed at a speed of 1/250 sec.

Photographer Comments: The Great Buddha is the second largest Buddha statue in Japan and is located on the grounds of the Kotokuin temple in Kamakura. It originally resided in a large temple hall that was washed away in a tsunami wave at the end of the 15th century.
 

Additionally, Jim thought of search words that someone might use to locate this picture including the terms daibutsa, Buddha, Japan, Amida Buddha, Kamakura and Buddhist, so he included these on this page as a service to himself and others who would like to download this free photograph!
