Shinkansen Speeding by MT Fuji

Hello!

This challenge entry consists of a scene with a Shinkansen bullet train speeding by Mt. Fuji and a red rising sun.

The Shinkansen, Mt. Fuji, and the rising sun are notable symbols of Japan.

Japan's Shinkansen high-speed rail system (my model based on the N700S series Shinkansen) has successfully transported over 10 billion people over the decades without a single fatality. Since its opening in 1964, it has become one of Japan's biggest innovative and technological triumphs.

Mt Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan. With a height of 3,776 meters, It has been worshiped as a sacred mountain for centuries.

The sun is on Japan's national flag and it plays a very important role in Japanese mythology and religion. The Emperor is said to be the direct descendent of the Shinto sun goddess Amaterasu.

I chose to create this because I love the pictures/footage of the Shinkansen speeding by Mt. Fuji. It's ancient Japan and modern-day Japan in harmony with one another.
