Japan is an island nation surrounded by the sea, but it is not widely known that nearly 70% of it is covered by forests. By focusing on a single tree, I expressed the beautiful four seasons that Japan is proud of. I expressed the charm of a single lonely tree through the seasons by traveling 3,500 km of land from north to south.

• Biography
  This is Studio O'nos, established in August 2020. We are a small photo studio in Fukuoka prefecture. Under the slogan "Changing the future with photos", we are selling panels of such photos that will heal and cheer up the customers who decorate them. The idea ??"with photos" rather than "by photos" is that our photos are a supporting role, and the main role is, of course, each customer. A single photo selected by the customer will move you. If you change your mind, you change your behavior. If you change your behavior, you change your future. We believe that it is our meaning to exist.
