I heard the beauty of frost covered trees in Mt.Yokote in Nagano prefecture in Japan, but in fact I didn't think it would be so beautiful.
Especially when it comes to landscape, I realized again that actual visit is very important.
I was aiming to take photos of the full moon rise and these frost covered trees at the evening, so the date had been fixed.
Only one concern was the weather, but luckily I was blessed with it.
Judgment and quickness are the deciding factor in shooting in the evening, so I quickly walked around the snow field to find this location and released the shutter.
In 2007, I was fascinated by the magnificent scenery in Hokkaido, which I visited for the first time, and started taking landscape photographs.
Then I continued to shoot at world-famous scenic spots such as the Grand Circle in the United States, Uluru Kata Tjuta National Park in Australia, and the Great Barrier Reef.
I have ever visited 15 countries and continue my adventure in pursuit of fascinating landscapes.
