 I took this while in Japan on business, just outside of the Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, Tokyo, Japan.

This piece of paper is a fortune that is obtained by placing 100 yen in a donation box, then choosing a stick out of a canister. You open a door that has a number that corresponds to the number on the stick and your fortune is written on a piece of paper. You then tie your fortune on one of the nearby wires and it will come true. :)

Cropped, USM, and lightened slightly.

Close, but not really an extreme close up.
