"Green Flash" Traveling on the Japan ocean side, you'll have the chance to see the moment the sunset falls on the horizon on a sunny day. It is a moment when you are about to make a "juh!" sound, but you can see another rare phenomenon just before sunset. This Green Flash is a sight that I have tried many times over the years in Fukaura Town in Aomori Prefecture, but I am sure that it can be seen along the coast all over the country. Even if you live in an area far from the sea, this is a scenery that you should definitely see when this corona turmoil calms down.

In Towada City, Aomori Prefecture, this is a Yabusame tournament held only by female jockeys around the time the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Female jockeys dressed in glossy kimono carry bows, ride on horses of Japan traditional lineage, and fly quickly through three targets while frying dust. Originally, Yabusame is an event held only by men as a Shinto ritual, but befitting the modern era of the 21st century, the gender difference between men and women has been abolished, and the ancient traditions of martial arts and equestrian arts that have been handed down from ancient Japan times have been adopted and passed on to future generations, and the world of glossy kimono fushiko is worth visiting and seeing. At the 4th "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS" Photo Contest - Spring of Japan, we were selected as one of the six winners out of 1,000 entries and received an honorable mention. 【Spring Shooting】
