22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Fuji-san

This is Mt. Fuji from the train window at Mt. Fuji Station in Japan in March. After I got back to New York City, I heard a lot about the SNS craze over the Mt. Fuji photo that seems to be sitting on top of a Lawson convenience store. I understand its appeal. Great ancient nature on top of modern convenience. But this photo reminded me how precious it is to find our own theater. The bench is for you and me.
