I am submitting my video, which can be viewed at https://vimeo.com/327658085.

I have hiked about 150km (93 miles) on notable Japanese mountains and visited numerous less mountainous locations to make this timelapse video. During the journey, I encountered wild bears, had my eyelashes frozen in the cold and sweated a ton.

I saw a lot of beautiful scenes, but my favorite is the sunrise with the right condition. When clouds clear the way for the sun to shine at the horizon, and a band of warm color illuminates part of the sky and gradually the peaks of mountains, excitement fills my heart to much that I want to breathe in the whole view to keep inside me. I made this video to hopefully share that feeling.

Sincerely,

Hideto Shimizu
