The weeping cherry blossoms in Kamihocchimachi, Numata City, Gunma Prefecture. They are located on a mound, with a Jizo statue at the base, and in the background, you can see the remaining snow on Joshu Hotaka Mountain. This is one of my favorite photography spots. The weeping cherry blossom, known as Hatsuchi no Jizo Zakura, is in full bloom. On a clear day, the Jizo statue served as a model for my photos. The parking area is small, making it a landscape in the satoyama that I wish to cherish.

群馬県沼田市上発知町のしだれ桜。塚の上にあり、根元にはお地蔵様がいて、背後に残雪の上州武尊山がみえる、私の大好きな撮影スポットです。発知の地蔵桜と言われるしだれ桜が満開。快晴の中、お地蔵様がモデルになってくれましたので、撮影してきました。駐車場も狭く、大切にしたい里山の風景です。

I took photos at Ashikaga Flower Park in Ashikaga City, Tochigi Prefecture, which is famous for its wisteria flowers and illuminations. Ashikaga Flower Park offers various flowers throughout the seasons, including roses, water lilies, and tulips, all of which bloom beautifully on a grand scale. Although it had rained until the morning, the weather cleared up, allowing me to see droplets on the early-blooming tulips, truly capturing the essence of spring.

栃木県足利市の藤の花やイルミネーションで有名な、あしかがフラワーパークで撮影しました。あしかがフラワーパークは、季節ごとに、バラの花やスイレン、チューリップなど色々な花が楽しめます。どの花を撮影に来ても規模が大きく見事に咲いています。この日は、朝まで雨が降っていたのですが、快晴になりましたので、少し早かったチューリップに雫がついていて、春を感じられました。

I took this photo at the Akagi Kogen Service Area on the Kan-etsu Expressway. I happened to stop by and was able to see the beautiful Joshu Hotakayama and Komagatake with their remaining snow. I included the cherry blossoms that were blooming at the service area in the shot. It turned out to be a photo that captures the feeling of "the arrival of spring."

関越自動車道の赤城高原サービスエリアで撮影しました。たまたま立ち寄ったのですが、残雪の残る上州武尊山や駒ケ岳がきれいに見られました。サービスエリアに咲いていた桜を入れて撮影してきました。「春の訪れ」を感じられた写真になりました。

A Yoshi burning event heralding spring took place in Oramachi, Tatebayashi City, Gunma Prefecture. The Yoshi burning at Tatara Swamp is impressive as it can be viewed up close. We felt the heat of the flames while capturing photos, covered in soot. Tatara Swamp is also famous as a stopover for swans, but this year, perhaps due to the warm weather, there were hardly any swans present. However, egrets, ducks, and weasels were seen scurrying around.

群馬県館林市邑楽町で春を告げるヨシ焼きが行われました。多々良沼のヨシ焼きは、近くで見られるため迫力満点です。炎の熱さを感じ、ススをかぶりながらの撮影でした。多々良沼は白鳥の飛来地でも有名ですが、今年は暖かかったからか白鳥はほとんどいませんでしたが、シラサギやカモ、イタチなどが逃げ回っていました。

This is Dianthus Aura. It is a new variety of perennial garden carnation that blooms abundantly in spring and autumn. The vibrant pink flowers appear as if their edges are delicately outlined with fine white threads, creating a gradient effect towards the center.

鮮やかなピンク色の花は、花びらの縁が細い白糸で縁取ったかのようになり、花芯に向かって白くグラデーションになります。

Title: Spring Unfolding on the Water The cherry blossom tree-lined path at Niwaki Dam Lake in Takeo City, Saga Prefecture, takes us from the present tranquility back to spring ten years ago. In this windless moment, I sensed spring unfolding upon the water's surface.
