In this stunning sunset photo by Agustin Rafael Reyes, we see the sun’s rays kissing the tip of Mount Fuji, turning it red as clouds below streak across. The picture was taken with a Canon EOS 7D at a Focal Length of 15mm, Shutter Speed of 1/8 secs, an Aperture of f/11 and ISO 100.

Mount Fuji, located on Honshu Island, is the highest mountain in Japan at 3,776.24m (12,389 ft). An active stratovolcano that last erupted in 1707–08, Mount Fuji lies about 100 kilometres (60 mi) south-west of Tokyo and can be seen from there on a clear day. Mount Fuji’s exceptionally symmetrical cone is snow-capped several months a year. [Source]
