Yari and the Hotaka mountain range. This photo collection is a compilation of works by Dai Otsuka, a mountaineer and photographer, who walked through the hidden regions of the Northern Alps and captured the scenery of its watersides. The cobalt blue of the snowfield of Karasawa, Taisho Pond reflecting the mountains like a mirror, and the mysterious Takase Dam floating in the sea of clouds... The beauty of the lakes and marshes, which change their appearance with each season, is captured with overwhelming scale and breathtaking delicacy. By flipping through this book, you can embark on a journey to explore the lesser-known lakes and marshes of the Northern Alps, as if following in Mr. Otsuka's footsteps. The ever-changing light and shadow, the water surface swaying in the wind, and the figures of the animals and plants that live there. The numerous spectacular views woven by moments of miracles teach us the "another face" of the Northern Alps. A gem of a book to give to everyone who loves mountains.
