God's Majesty Pond

This photo was taken in Hokkaido, located in the north of Japan. It is said that the blue color comes from the clear water of the river mixed with groundwater that contains a lot of aluminum flowing from waterfalls. These components floating in the water have the effect of scattering the sunlight, which reaches our eyes as short-wavelength light, making it appear a vivid blue. On this day, a rare mist hung over the area. I couldn't help but feel the presence of God in this miraculous landscape that was born by chance.

This is Studio O'nos, established in August 2020. We are a small photo studio in Fukuoka prefecture. Under the slogan "Changing the future with photos", we are selling panels of such photos that will heal and cheer up the customers who decorate them. The idea ā€‹ā€‹"with photos" rather than "by photos" is that our photos are a supporting role, and the main role is, of course, each customer. A single photo selected by the customer will move you. If you change your mind, you change your behavior. If you change your behavior, you change your future. We believe that it is our meaning to exist.
