Hososhima, Japan
Deep in a cave off the coast of Japan, a small shrine awaits those travelers who dare enter between rising tides. A Torii glows red in the dwindling sunlight, marking the gateway from the profane to the sacred. Venturing deeper towards the shrine, the cave swallows you whole in a cocoon of cool respite from the outside world.
The gateway is now just a shadow in the gaping hole, blinding with its light.
