there are still features on the mountain that could have been used to frame the scene and offer context. I agree, these mostly look like instagram shots from an airplane

These images are beautiful and they are intended to convey emotions and mood not “reality” or to be descriptive in the most literal sense of the word. Its not about being technically perfect. Life isn’t perfect.

Well, he camps on Mount Fuji – so he can’t really shoot it.

The man’s dedication is commendable.
But the pictures, it Seems the popular thing now is to make photos look like the photos did in the early 1970s?
Which to me, looked like shit. (That’s my opinion though, your mileage may vary)
To me i think it looks cheesy/crappy.
To spend that much time in such a inhospitable place, wouldn’t you want your photos to be AMAZING looking? Awe inspiring? To be of the highest quality possible?
In my personal opinion, they don’t look any better than an iphone processed picture of someone’s dinner posted on facebook.
If I had the chance i’d go view them on the walls of the showroom and maybe get a different opinion of them. Because quite frankly, viewing them on the web may not do them justice.
But for now, that’s where I stand on these.

there’s no context… they could’ve been taken from an aircraft window and I’d not be able to tell the difference. where’s Mount Fuji in the 600 days?

Terrible processing, ruins the images.
