Nishihama Breakwater
Captured at Katase-Nishihama Beach in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, along the coast of Shonan Bay. An overcast evening set the stage for a long exposure, smoothing the water’s surface while perfectly aligning with the setting sun.

Golden Hour
A visit to Katase-Nishihama Beach in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, off the coast of Shonan Bay, Japan, on an overcast day provided an opportunity to capture these silhouettes of visitors along the boardwalk. As the late afternoon sun broke through the clouds, it cast a bright spotlight on the calm waters of this cold winter day.

Zuishin-mon Gate
A visit to Enoshima Island, off the coast of Shonan Bay in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, led me to a grand gate marking the entrance to a complex of Shinto shrines atop the island. Stone stairways, winding their way up through the lush hillside, were adorned with rows of chochin paper lanterns, set out in celebration of the New Year’s holidays.
