I think the photo is upside down, and I agree with the previous poster, this is the Yamashiro.

The aft facing position of "C turret" would suggest that this is HIJMS Yamashiro.

Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

This is Yamashiro. Note the absence of the protrusion on the spine of the pagoda, which characterizes Fuso.
