Konashidaira Campground
This was our view from the campground nearest to Kappa Bridge, at the start of the Kamikochi hiking trail. We camped here for a night before embarking on a 15km hike up Karasawa Hutte.
Originally intending to photograph star trails at this location since the North Star is framed nicely in the middle for this location, but the thick clouds obscured our view of both the night sky and the Hida mountain range.
Nevertheless, while looking through my raw files for usable frames, I came across this 8 minute exposure that was part of a sequence for the hour-long star trail that we did. The clouds, though thick, happened to positioned very dynamically for this scene. Though I'd still prefer a full hour-long of circular star trails in a clear night sky, I'm pretty satisfied with this exposure as well.

Single-frame long exposure (8 minutes) with Laowa 20mm.
