Praying Man And Passing Couple

Shot in the city of Kitasenju, Tokyo.

In the course of rambling along, I came to an entrance of a Buddhist temple called Choen-Ji. A wooden gate stood there. I didn't know whether this temple was famous nor not. Yet it seemed not to be famous because there were few worshipers.

A man came to the gate and started to pray. He kept pressing his hands together and stayed motionless for a while. Apparently, he was faithful. In the meantime, a couple appeared. Unlike the man praying, they were not interested in this temple. They were passing by the temple at a brisk pace while they cast an eye on the man.
