I tried to capture the reflection of the sunrise from the gap between the very dynamic clouds and this photo. The banks of the Arakawa River, which runs through Saitama Prefecture, are an attractive spot with its expansive sky and beautiful scenery created by nature. Especially in the area near the Keihin-Tohoku Line, the sunlight that shines through the clouds in the early morning beautifully tints the sky, creating a fantastic morning scene. The morning glow of this location can be seen when you visit at the time when the sun begins to rise. The eastern sky slowly becomes brighter, and the light reflecting off the clouds colors the sky and the land in pale orange and pink. The moment when the Keihin Tohoku Line's railway bridge and tracks become silhouettes and overlap with the expanse of light creates a beautiful scene of harmony between nature and man-made objects. Especially on days when there are many clouds, sunlight streaks through the gaps in the clouds and illuminates the ground like a spotlight. This light effect is unique to early mornings, and capturing the moment when the train passes through is a dynamic way to capture the scene. The morning air is clear and the light is soft, making this a spot not to be missed by photography enthusiasts, as even a smartphone can be used to take fantastic photos.
