This photo was taken at the Nagamineyama Observation Deck and captures the scenery of the mountains and rice paddies visible from the deck. Taking advantage of the expansive view available only from such a high vantage point, I composed the shot to convey the majestic scenery of the Azumino countryside and the surrounding mountain ranges.
