   I captured this scene from the 2nd floor landing at the Koyodai-Tenbodai Rest House. Positioning your tripod in the left corner of the landing on the 2nd flat of stairs provides an unobtrusive vantage point for capturing the breathtaking scene.

   The Japanese maple tree visible from the second floor of the Koyodai Observatory Terrace adds a captivating foreground element, complementing the vibrant autumn colors in the lower mid-ground of the scene.

I hope to guide you through planning a visit to this off-the-beaten-path site, offering a serene experience away from the typical tourist crowds: https://www.pix4japan.com/blog/20231115-koyodai
