In Yokote City, Akita Prefecture, the phrase "Are you going to the vineyard?" is commonly heard during autumn. There are many vineyards where children can enjoy grape picking, while adults savor a drink with imonoko-jiru (potato stew) and pickles. Additionally, Yokote is also famous as a production area for wine grapes, being one of the main regions for major wine manufacturers. During the day, enjoy the vineyards, and at night, relax with some wine to fully experience autumn. How about indulging in such an autumn experience? This year, make sure to visit Yokote.

This is a photo taken when I went to Kokoen Garden in Himeji to see the autumn leaves. The vibrant colors of the foliage and the waterfall, which stands out in the tranquility, beautifully represent Japan's fall, creating a breathtaking scene! At the same time, I could also feel the joy and depth of photography.

I felt the arrival of the season as autumn clouds appeared, signaling the end of summer.

Azumino, a rice-producing region, is known for its traditional landscape of "haze-gake" (rice drying). Although this scene has become rare due to the widespread use of combines... the rice is slowly dried in the sun, resulting in delicious rice. 😄

The sunny landscape of Azumino revealed Mt. Jonen. Lately, rainy days have continued, preventing us from seeing the typical scenery of Azumino... It's a landscape that indicates autumn is approaching.

The flowing water emerging from Azumino is nourished by the spring water from the Northern Alps, cultivating wasabi and Shinshu Salmon. Aquatic plants sway gently, creating a pleasant atmosphere. 😆

After a long time, it’s clear and sunny in Azumino. Perhaps due to the strong winds, the sky shows lenticular clouds, and the weather forecast suggests it might become a midsummer day.

Azumino Chihiro Art Museum ~The World of Children's Paintings by Chihiro Iwasaki and Fumiko Hori~ This is an announcement for the autumn exhibition.
