All the ema at the locations where I took my photos had the same design, but designs vary depending on the temple or shrine, and there may be several types of ema available depending on the type of wish.
Those heart-shaped wooden boards are "絵馬 (Ema)" that are often seen at Japanese temples and shrines. It is said that if you write your wish on the back of the board and hang it up, your wish will come true.
What are those hearts?
I was just about to ask that myself! I wonder if they all have different pictures on them...

That's interesting, thanks!
Love the colors on the blue sky with the street sign!
I too like that contrast. (^_-)
