Japanese Twitter user and photographer Yuji Shibasaki (@Yuji_48) writes that he focuses on snapping shots of night views and starry skies in Tokyo and Saitama.

The accomplished photographer recently turned his camera to the celebrated forestry grounds of Mitsumine Shrine, a gorgeous shrine located at the summit of Mount Mitsumine in Chichibu. Because of it's location, it's sometimes referred to as a shrine "close to the sky where the gods".

Whether that's true or not, Shibasaki's impressive photography, which captures the shrine at night in the middle of falling snow, is absolutely stunning!
