18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Tateyama Mountain Range and Milky Way
At the end of the spring 2019 shooting trip, I climbed Tateyama after seeing the weather forecast. It is the snowiest mountainous area in Japan. I set up a tent at the campsite, slept a little and waited for the night. When I woke up in the middle of the night, the sky was full of stars. I climbed a hill a little away from the campsite and photographed Tateyama and the Milky Way.
