I wrapped up my photo shoot of the Oshidori-Kakushi Falls, tucked away in the upper reaches of the Shibu River, with this serene shot of Dale-chan, my loyal border collie, as she took a much-needed rest after navigating the rocky shoreline.

This peaceful waterfall, embraced by the verdant greenery of Yokoya Gorge in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, provided us both with a refreshing retreat from the constant buzz of life in the Tokyo metropolitan area, a moment of calm amid nature’s embrace.
