I took a picture of Yokohama's illumination, Yornoyo 2023, from the Yokohama Port Osanbashi International Passenger Ship Terminal in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. From Minato Mirai to Yamashita Park, music and illuminations work together to color the city. The photo is of the Minato Mirai side.

I photographed the Tokyo Sky Tree and Tokyo Mizumachi from the Pillow Bridge to the Kitajuma River. There are many people who take pictures of the Genmori Bridge because the sidewalk is wider and closer to the Sky Tree, but in fact, the Pillow Bridge is easier to get into the angle of view of the entire Sky Tree and it is easier to take a picture with reflection. If you go to Pillow Bridge, you can enjoy this kind of scenery at any time.

I took a picture of Tokyo Station from Marunouchi KITTE in Tokyo. Tokyo Station opened on December 20, 1914. The Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 caused almost no damage, but it was damaged by the Tokyo Air Raid in 1945. After the war, the Marunouchi station building was rebuilt with a reduced number of floors, and in 2012 Heisei 24, it was restored to its appearance at the time of opening.

I took a picture of the night view from the Skytree East Tower in the direction of Chiba. The Tobu Isesaki Line and the Keisei Oshiage Line pass through the lower left, and the Kitajuma River passes through the right side. The Arakawa River crosses a little above the middle. Tokyo is the world's largest megacity, surpassing New York, which was the world's number one until 1955, and has continued to hold the world's number one position ever since.

I took a night view of Tokyo from the Skytree East Tower in the direction of Mt. Fuji. Tokyo is the world's largest megacity, surpassing New York, which was the world's number one until 1955, and has continued to hold the world's number one position ever since. Mt. Fuji can be seen slightly to the right of the center of the photo, and Tokyo Tower can be seen slightly to the left.

I took a picture of the Tokyo Stop Line in front of the Imperial Palace, Hibiya Street, and Tokyo Station across Uchibori Street from the outer garden of the Imperial Palace. When I took the picture, it was just at the time of the full moon, and it happened to be in the center.

I took a picture of the buildings of Hibiya reflected in the triumphal moat near the Sakurada Gate of the Imperial Palace. The Sakurada Gate and stone walls are also lit up and benches are installed. You can enjoy the scenery slowly.

I took a picture of the moat of the Sakurada Bunker from the Hanzomon gate of the Imperial Palace towards the Sakurada Gate. Hanzomon is the highest of the Imperial Palace gates, so it is a recommended place to overlook the vast Sakurada Moat, and you can also enjoy the night view of Kasumigaseki from evening to night.

This is a photo taken from the Sakurada Gate of the Imperial Palace to the moat of the Sakurada Bunker in the direction of Hanzomon. At the Sakurada Moat in the Imperial Palace Gaien, you can enjoy the autumn leaves of the tulip trees planted as street trees from Hanzomon to Sakurada Gate. You can also enjoy the yellow leaves of the tulip trees lining the sidewalk, the beautiful moat, and the Parliament building

It is a nationally designated important cultural property in the Imperial Palace, the former Edo Castle Outer Sakurada Gate. The outer Sakurada Gate is famous for the "Sakurada Gate Outside Incident" of the assassination of Naoya Ii by the ronin of the Mito clan in 1860. This incident was caused by the suppression carried out by the shogunate, the "Great Prison of Ansei". After the incident, the authority of the shogunate was lost, and the Edo period, which lasted 265 years, came to an end.

This is a photo taken of Hibiya Street from the former Miyagi Wada Kuramon guard house on the Baba Sen moat side of the Imperial Palace Gaien. The former Miyagi Wada Kuramon guardhouse was built in 1923 Taisho 12. When Tokugawa Ieyasu entered Edo, a bridge was built for the passage of the earthpeople, and a gate was set up. It was called the Kura no Mimon, but later it came to be called the Wada Kuramon.

It is a Japanese antelope that I met when I went to Okutama Town, Tokyo. He gave me a look at the camera, so I took a picture. The Japanese antelope is a herbivorous mammal endemic to Japan that lives in Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu, excluding Hokkaido and the Chugoku region. The scientific name is Capricornis crispus, which belongs to the subfamily Goats of the artiodactyl bovine family. Due to overfishing, the number has decreased, and it was designated as a special natural monument of Japan in Showa 30. From the summer of 2022 to the fall of 2023, I went to Okutama about four times, and I was able to meet two of them, so I think there is a good chance that we will meet.

This is a photo of Minato Mirai from the Osanbashi International Passenger Ship Terminal of the Port of Yokohama in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. Minato Mirai is a development area where new buildings are constantly being built, but old buildings are also used for restaurants, shops, government buildings, etc., and it is an area where you can see a very beautiful cityscape where new and old things coexist.

This is the state of the Asakusa Rooster Market at the Eagle Shrine. Asakusa Rooster Market is a festival held every year on Rooster Day in November and is the largest rooster market in Japan. Ravels are sold at the rooster market, but rakes are one of the agricultural tools that are responsible for raking up the fallen harvest. This word "raking" has changed to the meaning of raking up good fortune, and rakes have come to be sold as lucky charms.

It is a bronze statue of Heihachiro Togo and a memorial ship Mikasa in Mikasa Park in Yokosuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture. Mikasa was built in England during the Meiji era, and was a battleship that was very active in the Russo-Japanese War with Secretary Heihachiro Togo on board. It is the oldest surviving steel battleship in the world, and you can actually board it and see the inside of the ship at that time.

I took a picture of Nakamise and Hozomon of Sensoji Temple from the Asakusa Tourist Center. The Asakusa Tourist Center is an 8-story building, and there is a free observatory on the top floor where you can overlook Asakusa. There is also a coffee shop, where you can enjoy the scenery of Asakusa while enjoying soft drinks and alcohol, and there are also snacks, so you can fill your stomach.

I happened to see it on my evening walk, so I took a picture of the crescent moon with the five-storied pagoda of Sensoji Temple, even though it was about two days past the crescent moon.

From Sakurabashi, the cherry blossom festival and houseboats in Sumida Ward took a picture of the Sumida River. The Sumida River is famous for cherry blossoms, and many houseboats come every day at this time of year. A cherry blossom festival is held along the river, and you can enjoy watching the cherry blossoms at the stalls, where drinks such as soft drinks and alcohol, and food such as fried chicken, yakisoba, oden, and frankfurters are sold.

It is the Hozomon gate of the local Sensoji Temple, the five-storied pagoda, and the drooping cherry blossoms taken in the middle of the night. This drooping cherry blossom is famous and hangs from daytime to night, A lot of people come to take pictures and watch. That's why photos without people from this angle are very valuable laughs. The flowering of the drooping cherry blossoms is a little earlier than that of the Yoshino cherry blossoms. The best time to see it is from the middle of March.

This is the main hall and shrine office of Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, my hometown, taken in the middle of the night. I often see Sensoji Temple, which is crowded with people, It's hard to see Sensoji Temple when there is no one there. It's a privilege to be able to take pictures because it's local laughs.

The river is beautiful and you can see the fish swimming. It is a city where you can enjoy a little old Japan.

This photo was taken from Tower Hall when I was about two months into the camera. I bought it more than 10 years ago and took it with a con digital that I hadn't used at all.
