Lawson and Fujisan Ed. 1 of 10

One of the most famous views of Mt Fuji, this spot has been incredibly popular in recent years. Picturing an iconic Lawson Konbini (convenience store) in front of the iconic Mt Fuji. For many tourists, these two symbols combined speak to their Japanese experience. Due to poor tourist behaviour, this spot has now been covered by a black plastic barrier.

This image was taken in the early hours of the morning, just as the diffuse light from the sun crept over the surrounding mountains.
