Sittin by the roadside with a radar gun and rush hour is comin' to a close. The numbers don't match up with the normal averages in America, guess that means the Japanese are also more responsible about drivin-
wait, Japan, the metric system! That's why numbers don't add up, what the hell is a kilometer??
This is another composition I could not be more proud of. Especially since no one else has gotten it before. This is just a normal freeway on-ramp. I remember passing it weeks earlier en-route to Kyoto and the idea has been nagging at me since. There are 4 roads here and a big ol' beautiful mountain in the back. When I was back in Fujiyoshida on the leg back to Tokyo, and had more time to actually look around, I decided to give it a try.
I actually just went onto the on-ramp and pulled over. Even if it didn't cover the roads as well, I decided to try a vertical frame as opposed to horizontal so I could line up Fuji better (I usually prefer vertical frames anyway). The sun was still in the air for around 30-45 minutes, so that left plenty of wiggle room and experimenting time.
When the sky began to turn purple, dusk fading, it was go time. I was still risking over-exposure, but there was a cloud going over Fuji's cap and I wanted that in. It became easier to capture the bottom half at this time as well, the light streak.
What you see in this final product is an accidental stroke of luck. I often use the stacking tool to align images but I never keep them stacked cause I'm looking for specific elements I want. But this time when I used it, it actually combined the light streaks and made it look better then ever, I don't know what went different this time, but I was definitely going to roll with it. After the increasingly normal errand of cleaning up dead pixels and dimming the tunnel just a smidge, I focused on the upper half. I silouhetted the trees, put a motion blur on the edges of thhe cloud and a gradient on the bottom of Fuji to help make it stand out from, the highway. All my skills I learned thus far are on display here. Thought about lighting up the snow but when it really comes down to it, Fuji is not the subject of this shot.
Even when I was shooting horizontally, the actual freeway in the back and the offramp on the right wasn't very busy and I hardly got anything there anyways. This winding road beneath it though was the one that really needed to count, and boy did it pay out. Y'know what? I'm not droppin' a geotag. This is my little secret.
