Hidden deep in the mountains of Gunma, Japan, beyond the reach of cell signals, lies this untouched haven. After walking a quiet forest road and following a stream through rocks and moss, I arrived at this sacred place. Sunlight filtered through narrow cliffs, illuminating the water in a silent, reverent glow. Isolated and pristine, this scene felt like nature’s private sanctuary—a moment of stillness that exists far from the noise of the modern world.

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.
