Tadami Line is one of Japan's most unexplored routes. It is called "Mugen-kyo (Mystical fog canyon)" because it is covered with fantastic fog during the rainy season.

Takeshi Kameyama is a photographer based in Niigata, Japan, who began his career in 2008, pursuing genre-defying artistic expressions. Alongside fine-art photography, he works in advertising, including Sony G Master promotions and East Japan Railway projects. He is currently an MFA candidate at Kyoto University of the Arts, deepening academic research in photography. In May 2026, he hosted a joint exhibition with Farmani Group and TIFA in Shibuya.
