This is a photo of a starry night with a large ginkgo tree watching over an old Japanese town. This is a view of a town in Katsuragi Town, Wakayama Prefecture. The large ginkgo tree in the photo is located at the "Niu-Sakadono" Shrine. This is one of the most famous shrines in Wakayama Prefecture. Many people come here every year to pray and are fascinated by the size and the beauty of this ginkgo tree. This tree is very leafy. But once it starts to die, time flies so fast that the best time to see is only a few days or less. On this day, I was lucky enough to have clear skies at the right time, so I was able to capture about an hour's of star trails. The contrast of "time" between the stars which seemed to fall like rain and the great ginkgo trees which have not changed their appearance for many years, makes this one of my favorite shots. This is my third NFT work. Photo data Date taken: November 25, 2020 Size: 8048×12096
