This is a series of photographs capturing the four seasons of Kakumanbuchi in Mount Akagi. The theme is the beauty and resilience of nature. I've been visiting this spot since I was a child, and even after several decades, I can still witness the same unchanging seasons I saw back then. I hope you can feel the beauty and strength of these repeating seasons amidst the flow of time.
My name is Genki Uehara.
I am a photographer based in Mount Akagi, Gunma Prefecture, Japan, mainly capturing the beautiful nature of Mount Akagi and the surrounding Gunma region.
