I photographed a Japanese crane. The shooting location is Tsurui Ito Sanctuary in Tsurui Village, Hokkaido. The Japanese crane is designated as a special natural monument of the country. I moved to Hokkaido because I admire Japanese cranes. I have been taking photos of Japanese cranes for over 10 years. I think Japanese cranes are beautiful, like gods. It is a bird of sacred and mysterious beauty. I take photos to convey the splendor and beauty of Japanese cranes.
