Photo – Shiraito Falls River This was a little bit of a bitch to take. The bridge I was standing on was extremely wobbly especially whenever anyone walked onto the bridge behind me. I took about a dozen photos of the waterfall and underlying pool at the far end of the photo, but I havent been able to get [...]

Photo – Alone In The Falls   This rock was perfectly positioned right under the narrow end of a waterfall. All of the rocks in this area just looked amazing . Very vibrant/colorful. I just hope I was able to get the detail from the rocks the way I saw it on that day.  

Photo – Fujiyoshia Sengen Temple   The Fujiyoshia Sengen Temple is a rather large one at that. have it being large it also has a lot of foot traffic which was making it difficult to find a good spot to set up without being bumped into or my photos being walked into. I am a [...]

Photo – Frozen In Time Fujiyoshida Sengen I must have taken 50 different exposures of this statue, and i feel I could have taken 50 more. Something about these Dragons and the water really pulls me in. I might be the only one but i just love the look and feel of them. This is one of the [...]

Photo – Frozen In Time WITH CUPS!!! By now you have probably noticed a few similar photos of dragons in different poses. There are  located at some temples/shrines near the entrances where people can come to wash down there hands and drink a little of the cool refreshing water. I wish I had captured someone drinking from [...]

Photo – Red Boats Along Fuji This shot was taken on the other side of the lake as the previous Boats Less Traveled Photo. It might look kind of similar but im a sap for old boats with a lot of colors. There’s a few sakura trees in the background and an old man try [...]

Photo – Temple Of Tranquility At a rather large Temple in Fuji there was this little walk way leading back behind into a lush garden with a few smaller shrines. It took me near 20 minutes to get this photo without random people walking in and out of focus. There is a few things I don’t like with [...]

Photo – Impending Doom As Scott and I were heading down looking for one of the lakes around Fuji Scott noticed this little on clove off the road we were on. I got my Tripod and camera set up just in time as the morning fog started to roll out. This photo seems to me like the [...]

Photo – Pond Off The Road Heading down around the lakes towards the Mt Fuji viewing spot i noticed through some trees off the road a slight reflection. Me and Scott pulled off the road and set off to grab a few photos. This was the end result and the happiest of the bunch I was able to grab. I wish there was [...]

Photo – Man In The Mist Me and Scott had headed up to Fuji at about 2am and arrived close to 3:30 around 4 the sun just started to peak and the fog rolled in. Scott walked out onto this clunky old dock to grab a few shots and I just couldn’t resist grabbing a quick snap of it while the fog surrounded him.
