Get some insights about the real sources of pollution.

Simple. The source is pretty much humans and our activity.

Bizarre to think I've been in Japan for twenty years and I have never seen Fuji san. Never really had the compulsion. Am I missing much?

I guess some people here commenting never have been visit observation deck 1. Also some people don't know about photography and just put lame comments.

miss Tokyo so much.

Meanwhile, your clothes, your food, your smartphone, your video streaming platform pollute more.

So what are you suggesting I do? And what are you doing go reduce YOUR carbon footprint then?

We often see pictures like this where it looks like Fuji-san is right next to Tokyo landmarks

Perhaps too many. I'd love to see a bigger variety of photos from around Japan. JT, why not ask readers to submit photos for display? The BBC does this on their site, and they can be very good. Below is a link to an example of readers' photos from Scotland.

Good for environment, less pollution so mount Fuji can be seen

Air traffic is only responsible for 2% of the world pollution.

Meanwhile, your clothes, your food, your smartphone, your video streaming platform pollute more.

Get some insights about the real sources of pollution.

Flying in tomorrow. Will be nice if we can see Fuji from the air.

"Good for environment, less pollution so mount Fuji can be seen"

and what about the people who are employed in the transportation sector? Is it good for them?

There are 24 hilly streets within the 23 wards of Tokyo named “Fujimi Zaka”, of which only 4 currently have any view of the mountain due to new construction.

Go to the OK supermarket (足立小台店 Adachi Kodai branch) rooftop parking lot located in the river bank between Sumida and Arakawa rivers to have the best unblocked Tokyo view ever, including the great Fujisan, 2 Tokyo towers, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, Saitama and Yokohama.

I'm always amazed how Fuji-san can seem so close but in reality is so far away. I once had a very clear view from central Ibaraki.

OK photography folks, what kind of lens/equipment would be necessary to get this kind of shot?

No trickery required just a lens with very long focal length. The photographer would have be a long distance from the airport building to achieve this effect.

Yep looks like some post processing of the image. According to Google maps Mt. Fuji is about 95km (60mi) away.

OK photography folks, what kind of lens/equipment would be necessary to get this kind of shot? We often see pictures like this where it looks like Fuji-san is right next to Tokyo landmarks, but obviously that's not the case. I'm guessing most people can't take this picture on their smartphone cameras.

Quiet airport, Planes are parked at gates at Tokyo Haneda International Airport Tuesday, with Mount Fuji in the background.
