The sky is blue in Japan Photo

Photographer’s Note

Shinhotaka Onsen.
A wonderful spot in Japan, green mountains, onsen and fresh air. I walked a bit near the Ryokan where we slept. There was no sound except birds, the air was so fresh, not to warm it was great.

great POV, Hans!!
It seem to be a tunnel vision, IMO, almost a dynamic shot...
The high contrast between nature and human work (and colors chosen) is superb!
You captured a nice warm light over the mountains that add to the mood.
Well done

Excellent image. The colors and POV are truly captivating. Very good use of the symmetrical composition. I almost get the feeling of being suck in by the road and the speed (even if there’s no motion blur).

Hans,
Great angle. The picture or the road seems to lean slightly to the left, but that's just a good effect. Driving on the japanese countryside is often beautiful, and you get to see a lot too since the speeds are not so high and most places.
Regards,
Magnus

Amazing light, lines and perspective! The road is an invitation to travel and the green mountains in distance are very attractive.
