What a beautiful view!! Love the contrasting smaller mountain with the larger, further away mountain. The green of the mountain is a good color. The fisherman looks serene.
Good luck.

Of the several pictures with Mount Fuji in the background, this is my favorite. I love the way this gentleman is nonchalantly fishing, seemingly unaware of the incredible beauty all around him. It juxtapositions the mundane with the supreme! As always, your workmanship is flawless.

Fred,
A great picture of the fisherman relaxing with his Fishing rod waiting patiently for a fish to bite. In the background on the far side of lake Saiko & behind the near mountains the ssnow capped peak of mount Fuji glistening in the sun light. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

Comment from Sange
What great timing to have this fisherman in your shot in the foreground leading us down to the snowcapped My.Fuji.
His chair is very interesting where he can rest his legs up with shoes off!
Great clarity, fine details with a great view.
Nice work Fred ;

more Fuji pics to come

Comment from bpellephoto
Excellent view of Mt Fuji in the background.

Your camera settings bring this take to life.

The color range and lighting of the take are well balanced and contribute nicely to the overall eye appeal of your composition.

DOF is excellent for the subject matter. There is strong detail across the entire image.

The framing of this composition is not cluttered and speaks well of the subject matter.

Thanks for sharing ... B-)) Bob

Comment from nikman
And a grand view it is too! Your fine composition gives us a good look at the scene and the action. Like that seat in which the man appeared to be floating over the lake. Nicely done!

And what a wonderful view to have! not to mention his cool seat.....great positioning capturing all the important visual elements in equal importance here, with great DOF and great colours, the clarity is amazing even with the distance it carries......great shot.

A nicely composed shot with an excellent view of the fisherman in the foreground. The landscape is beautiful and I think the view of Mt. Fuji is very good.
