Photographer Spends 600 Days On Mt Fuji, Japan, Captures Sunrises

For four years in a row, Japanese artist Yamauchi Yu spent five months each year 10,000-feet above sea level.

Located in a hut near the summit of Mt Fuji, Japan, every of his 600 days were spent getting up while it was still dark to photograph the sunrise from the same location.

The result is a stunning series entitled ‘DAWN’—a look of earth waking up from above the clouds.

The sometimes-abstract series features the sun rising from the same spot repeatedly.

But as with all organic things by nature, the look of the rising sun and its surrounding clouds change each day—every image of the sun and clouds look different, no single picture looks the same.
