Kannonnuma Forest Park

【The Revelation of Light and Mist, The Still Water Mirror】 The ephemeral beauty depicted by 'Kannonuma Forest Park', a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Nestled in the deep forests of Shimogo Town, 'Kannonuma Forest Park' is a miraculous scenic spot that only appears at the moment the wind falls asleep. Standing by the shore of the pond, which cradles a few floating islands, the hustle and bustle of the city fades into the mist, revealing a world dominated by overwhelming 'silence' that even makes your fingers hesitate to point your lens.

■ The mirror surface reflects 'burning silence'

On windless days, the surface of Kannonuma becomes a flawless mirror.

• The disappearing water mirror: The fiery red and golden trees that adorn the shore are astonishingly vividly projected onto the water's surface. The real and the illusion blend together, creating a mystical scene where it becomes impossible to tell where the sky ends and the water begins; it is truly a mirror world created by nature.
• The abyss of colors: The vivid colors of autumn are amplified twofold and threefold by the water mirror, intoxicating the vision of those who visit.

■ The 'Prelude of Illusion' released by morning mist and rays of light

Many photographers have their reasons for setting up tripods in this place from the darkness still holding stars.

• The dance of morning mist: In the early morning when the sun begins to show its face, the milky white morning mist drifting over the lake is illuminated by beams of light (rays) filtering through the trees, creating a fantastical landscape.
• A moment of drama: The angle of light, the density of mist, the stillness of water. The scene that appears only at the moment when everything perfectly overlaps is truly 'the art of light'.

Chasing a fleeting light and waiting for a moment of stillness in the breeze. A beautiful 'silence' landscape that makes you forget time and want to peer through the viewfinder. Why not visit Kannonuma to etch that miraculous moment with your own eyes and heart?
