First Light on Fuji San

Seeing a morning sunrise of Mount Fuji brings good luck and fortune according to the people of Japan. As cold as it has been in Japan recently, the cool Winter air also provide the best opportunity to see a clear view of Mount Fuji, especially in the morning hours. I went to the beautiful coastal city of Shizuoka to try to get the best angle on the kiss of light on the snow-capped tip of the volcano and it did not disappoint. Until next time, Mahalo.
