Taken on October 17, 26. It's the first day of the Kawagoe Festival. This is the float of Wakitamachi and Ieyasu departing.

The Autumn Festival at Fukuōji Shrine is a festival that features a portable shrine passing through the Imperial Gate of Ninna-ji, showcasing the fusion of Shinto and Buddhism. This year, after seven years, the Kenboko (spear-like decoration) was presented within the grounds of Ninna-ji. The highlight is the magnificent procession of the Senkan portable shrine! In front of the Nio Gate at Ninna-ji, there will be performances of taiko drums, lion dances, and the "lifting" and "turning" of the portable shrine, creating a lively atmosphere for the festival. Additionally, the normally closed Imperial Gate of Ninna-ji will be opened, providing a rare opportunity for solemn ceremonies to be held in front of the Shin-den. This year marks the return of the Kenboko presentation after seven years within the grounds of Ninna-ji. 📅Every year on the third Sunday of October 📍Procession of the Portable Shrine Starting from Fukuōji Shrine, it will pass through Narutaki, Yamagoe, Uzumasa, Tokiwa, and Omuro, then return to Fukuōji Shrine via Ninna-ji. 📸 Recommended Viewing Spots Around 14:30｜In front of the mountain gate of Ninna-ji Around 15:30｜Fukuōji Intersection This autumn festival in Kyoto is filled with the enthusiasm and traditions of the local people.

The cold has intensified, and the leaves have started to fall at Lake Akanko (Captured on October 17🍁) Although the leaves have begun to fall, vibrant yellow and red foliage can still be seen in areas shielded from the strong winds♪ Given the increasing cold, the peak viewing season may only last for another 2 to 3 days🍂 #Lake Akanko #Foliage Spot #Yellow Leaf Spot #lake_akan #autumnleaf🍁

This is a sparkling plume of Japanese pampas grass taken at the boardwalk of Ido Shitsugen in Kanuma City, Tochigi Prefecture on October 10, 2026. When I focused on the pampas grass in the back, the ones in the front sparkled beautifully.

On the morning at Kaida Highlands, the morning light began to shine on the large tree in the center, revealing its presence. I posted 10 photos on 10/16 but forgot to write comments. Although the photos are duplicated, I appreciate your understanding.

As autumn is nearing its end, I was surprised to see that there is still greenery around Mitake Shizenko.

It seems that the peak season has passed at Mt. Adatara's valley, so I tried to capture the flow of water mixed with fallen leaves around the small waterfall.

The cabin in Nishi-Agatsuma surrounded by autumn leaves was striking. The foliage was also at its peak.

The slopes of the Azuma Mountain Range were beautifully adorned with clusters of trees, reflecting the late autumn atmosphere. I gathered the trees that had started to shed their leaves.

Nishi-Azuma and Tsubakurozawa, viewed from the road, were beginning to display beautiful colors.

On a late autumn morning at Kitayamazaki, as the sun began to rise, the morning mist started to flow.

The sun has begun to rise over Arakawa Plateau in Tono City. A piece of cloud has drifted in, adding an accent to the blue sky.
