    1. [Today’s @tryglass photo thread 🧵. I post a pic with commentary every day for 2 weeks to test out the app] Ankokuji is a temple on #Ikijima #壱岐 and part of the nation-wide network of 68 temples constructed to "protect the country" by order of the Ashikaga shogun in 1338. 1/5

    One of the unique features of this ancient temple are the eaves, the corners of which are a pair of three-pronged joints stacked upon one another. It is called a "crow's foot." 🐦 🦶 2/5

      I snapped a couple of pics from the side where you can see how each layer rests on the single middle joint and spreads out. But I really like this framing from below. No crop! Just taking with my iPhone 📱 while I was on a tour. 3/5

        Other than maybe a fancy colour cast, I am not sure how I could make this photo better. 🤔 Could I have captured the depth of the layers in a better way? I think this is more about capturing 700 year old symmetry. 4/5
