Recently, I visited Mikuni Pass. Mikuni Pass is the highest pass on the national highway in Hokkaido, located at the boundary between Kamishihoro Town in Kawato-gun, Tokachi, and Kamikawa-cho in the Kamikawa General Subprefectural Bureau. Standing at the high-altitude observation deck, you can enjoy the lush greenery of summer and the beautiful autumn foliage.

Autumn has arrived at Azumino Winery. Vineyards spread at the foot of the Northern Alps. This is the season when the bountiful grapes are beautifully ripening!♪ The blessings of this rich land will turn into delicious wine🍷.😄 In the on-site shop, you can enjoy shopping and wine tasting (both paid and free).

Alps Azumino National Government Park, Horigane and Hotaka area is currently at its best for the yellow cosmos. There are 800,000 cosmos flowers blooming in the terraced rice fields. It seems like a great time to enjoy during the holidays, but I'm worried about the impact of the typhoon…😟

The Yabusame ceremony of Kamogawa City will be broadcasted on 'Japanese Festivals' 👍 Continuing to Live Together with the Home that Connects Yabusame – The Annual Festival of Kippo Hachiman Shrine Yabusame Ceremony – Saturday, November 7th at 7 PM on Chiba TV This ceremony is held at Kippo Hachiman Shrine, which is said to have a history of about 800 years dating back to the Kamakura period. It has been passed down as a prayer to protect and nurture the bountiful rice farming of Nagasa. ✨Don't miss it!

This morning, it was pleasantly sunny in Azumino. The ridge of the Northern Alps was beautifully visible. When I hurried to the summit of Mount Nagamine, clouds had already rolled in…😅 The best viewpoint in Azumino.

In the Shimizu District of Azumino, one of the few remaining terraced rice fields can be found. The rice harvesting season has arrived. It seems that the prolonged rain this month has delayed the harvest.

On Sunday, September 20th, we held the 50th Hakurin Park Festival! Despite the unfortunate weather, many people attended. Thank you to everyone who came to the venue!

I took this photo at Kinchakuda Manjushage Park in Hidaka City, Saitama Prefecture. I visited to see the fields of Manjushage in full bloom. The shoot took place in the rain, creating a serene and rich autumn landscape with the red flowers, the wet ground, and the dark background of the trees, quite different from a sunny day. Not only did I capture the fully bloomed Manjushage, but I also intentionally included the fallen trees at my feet and the rain-soaked ground, encapsulating the quiet atmosphere I felt while standing there. I hope you can appreciate not just the splendor of the Manjushage, which represents autumn in Japan, but also its other, more subtle aspects.

I took pictures of the beautiful autumn foliage in the mountains at Hadano Togawa Park in Kanagawa Prefecture.
