Ema
Unfortunately I must admit, that I might be wrong on this one, but since lots of them are found around Shintu shrines (these here e.g. were photographed right next to the Kasuga Shrine in Nara) I think these may be some sort of "Ema", i.e. Shintu prayer tablets. Well, although I cannot read them, I somehow like the inscriptions and just had to capture them.
Post processing here mainly consisted of a sepia colouring and some tone mapping for local contrast enhancements.
