Japan Landscape Photography, Mt, Haguro, Yamagata.

The hike up Mt Haguro is a magical experience that passes through beautiful forest, past waterfalls, Tori gates and to amazing temples. It’s definitely a photographers paradise with many sights along the way and an abundance of nature. There are 500 year old cedar trees through which a stone pathway with 2,250 stairs has been carved. I took these photos on a whirlwind tour of the mountain but I would love to go back and photograph at dawn to capture the mist in the forest that would add a magical touch.
