祇園祭は八坂神社の祭礼で、その祭事は、7月1日の「吉符入」に始まり7月31日の「疫神社夏越祭」まで、およそ1か月にわたって行われます。「京都祇園祭の山鉾行事」はユネスコ無形文化遺産にも登録されています。
祇園祭は千年以上の歴史を持ち、7月1日(吉符入)から31日(疫神社夏越祭)まで、1か月にわたって多彩な祭事が行われる八坂神社の祭礼です。なかでも17日(前祭)と24日(後祭)の山鉾巡行、そして祭の前日に行われる宵山には大勢の人々が訪れ、京のまちは祭りの熱気に包まれます。

私が撮影した過去の静止画を用いて、祇園祭の宵山と山鉾巡航を映像化した。
前祭の出発は、四条通りと麩屋町通りの交差部、ドラックストアの前で出発の儀式が行われる。全ての山鉾は同じルートを巡航する。
山鉾は交差点で辻回しを行う。そうやって鉾を回転させる。撮影ポイントは四条通りの高瀬川から出発の瞬間がとれる。また河原町通り、御池町通りからも同様に鉾の正面を撮影できる。ただし300mmの長い望遠レンズが必要である。
鉾を間近に見るのであれば、新町通りが良い。特に逓信病院の前は空地が広く撮影しやすい。
人混みがカメラの前面にあるので、脚立があると便利だ。ただし最近警備が厳しく、撮影の範囲が限定的になっている。

山鉾の巡航は2回に別けて行われる。17日の方が規模も大きく、撮影ポイントも多い。
The Gion Festival is a festival of Yasaka Shrine, and the festival is held for about a month, starting with "Kichifuiri" on July 1st and ending with "Eki Shrine Nagoshi Festival" on July 31st. "Kyoto Gion Festival Yamahoko Event" is registered as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
The Gion Festival has a history of more than 1,000 years, and is a festival of Yasaka Shrine where various festivals are held for a month from July 1st (Kichifuiri) to 31st (Eki Shrine Nagoshi Festival). In particular, the Yamaboko Junko on the 17th (Sakimatsuri) and 24th (Atomatsuri), and the Yoiyama held on the day before the festival, attract a large number of people, and the city of Kyoto is filled with the excitement of the festival.
We have made a video of the topics of such a festival.

Using the still images I took in the past, I visualized the Yoiyama and Yamaboko cruise of the Gion Festival.
The departure ceremony for the pre-festival will be held at the intersection of Shijo-dori and Fuyacho-dori, in front of a drug store. All floats cruise the same route.
The yamaboko performs a tsuji-mawashi at the intersection. Rotate the halberd like that. The shooting point can be taken at the moment of departure from the Takase River on Shijo Street. You can also photograph the front of the float from Kawaramachi-dori and Oike-machi-dori. However, you need a long telephoto lens of 300mm.
If you want to see the floats up close, Shinmachi-dori is good. In particular, the open space in front of the Telecommunications Hospital is wide and easy to photograph.
A stepladder is convenient because the crowd is in front of the camera.
However, security has been tight recently, and the range of filming has become limited.

The Yamaboko cruise is divided into two parts. The scale of the 17th is larger, and there are more shooting points.
