Taken on October 18, 26. It's the second day of the Kawagoe Festival. This is LEC COFFEE's lemonade soda and napolitan bread.

The sunset sinking into the sea and the susuki swaying in the wind. A gentle autumn breeze carried the leisurely time unique to Izu Oshima Island.

The Kawagoe Festival has concluded.

Last week, I stopped by Doryu Falls in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture while visiting Nobeyama. It takes about 15 minutes to walk along a relatively flat path from the parking lot to get there. I soaked in a lot of negative ions.

Next to Kanzan Park, located on the border between Kiyose and Tokorozawa, there is a Cosmos field that is currently at its best viewing time. The weather was nice, making it a perfect day for a stroll.

It's the second day of the Kawagoe Festival. The Nasori float is about to depart.

The representative mountain of Tomakomai, Mt. Tarumae. It was formed by a moderate eruption in 1909, creating the lava dome that can be seen today. This lava dome is designated as a natural monument by Hokkaido and is considered globally valuable for academic research. As of October 18th, the volcanic alert level is at 1, allowing for climbing; however, for safety reasons, access to the lava dome is prohibited. Please enjoy the impressive aerial photos instead.

Photographed on October 17, 2026. On the first day of the Kawagoe Festival, I visited LEC COFFEE. I had a hot sandwich with egg, lettuce, and bacon, along with a dirty chai.

Taken on October 17, 2014. It was the first day of the Kawagoe Festival. The moment the floats turned was impressive.

It's the first night of the Kawagoe Festival. In Shintomi-cho 2-chome, the mirror lion float and in Suehirocho, the Takasago float are crossing each other.

This photo of the autumn leaves, Mount Fuji, and Lake Shojin was taken around 7 AM on November 14, 2025, in Fujikawaguchikomachi, Minamitsuru-gun, Yamanashi Prefecture. I arrived at Lake Shojin in the middle of the night and waited for sunrise to capture this moment. The vibrant red leaves and the sunlight made me feel excited, making me forget the morning chill.

The Kawagoe Festival has begun.

The stars were beautiful, so I took pictures of Orion at Shinjo Park in Tanabe City. By chance, a shooting star appeared next to Betelgeuse, one of the stars that make up Orion. The park at night is quiet and nice, unlike during the day.

It's the first day of the Kawagoe Festival. Preparations are underway in Minamitoorimachi.

Taken on October 14, 2026. This is a café latte from CAFE ANDON and a cinnamon crumble tart with marmalade.
