“Mighty Fuji” — The Story behind the iconic landscape photograph and 1/1 fine art.
I’ve been all across the world, and there is truly no place like Mount Fuji. There is just something magical about that majestic mountain…
The first time I saw Fuji in 2020, I couldn’t believe how gigantic this mountain was. It’s so much more epic than you ever could expect. It’s a pretty mountainous/hilly area, but somehow, Fuji stands out of the crowd by the way it builds up to its beautiful snowy top.
Since my first meetup, I’ve vowed to come back as soon as I could to see more angles of Mt Fuji. The whole region of Mount Fuji with the Five Lakes and multiple towns is actually huge, and you need at least a week to cover it all and see Fuji from all angles (which is totally worth it, by the way!).
Third time is a charm
I came back to Mt Fuji in the fall of 2024, this time with an actual campervan to traverse for 17 days all across the region of Fuji and so much more (Tokyo, Shirakawa, Kanazawa, Lake Biwa, Kyoto, Nara, Shizuoka, Kamakura, etc). It was the bucket-list trip of my dreams!
The mission was to chase the fall foliage and document Japan’s finest hotspots with the beautiful, colorful red-green-yellow-orange mix of leaves. And boy, did I get what I hoped for! 🌞
The moment of the iconic Mighty Fuji photograph
It’s pretty rare to get Mt Fuji without clouds covering its top and base, but I was blessed with perfect weather conditions on the days that I was there. Having Mt Fuji like that is a gift that I for sure cherished by driving all around the area for the best angles, getting up at the crack of dawn with -1 temperatures, and taking hundreds of shots to find the absolute winner.
To my amazement, I found dozens of photographers all lined up to take the same exact shot. Not the shot that I took, but all the same ‘clean and naked’ shot of Mt Fuji. No foreground and no other interesting details to enhance the shot, just Fuji. It felt so standard and so bland to just take the same shot as the rest. I felt like taking a school portrait of a kid. I’ve never felt so unoriginal when I stood there…
So, I decided to find unique angles that nobody was composing, and after scouting the whole area and trying to find the most gorgeous frame-filling landscape photograph, I found ‘Mighty Fuji’!
In this short clip, I show some more footage about the moments right before taking my favorite landscape photograph:
What I like about this photograph
I’ve shot hundreds of photos of Fuji from all angles, but this one just stands out. It’s so majestic!
The layered-ness of this shot (the lake and the forests in the front, the glorious cloud-free Mt Fuji in the middle, and the red leaves in the top) makes it so mesmerizing to look at.
I love that the early morning sun was shining on the right side of the snowy top, giving it that golden glow. Like a crown on a King!
Japan is my favorite country in the world, and Mt Fuji is my favorite place in the world, so I feel so honored and content to have documented Mt Fuji this way. Of all my photographs ever composed, this is the one I am the proudest of. I truly feel I have honored Mt Fuji with this photograph.
