Mountain cherry blossoms in Ino Town, Kochi Prefecture It was hazy and showed us some great moments 😊 🗓️2024.3.30 📷Canon R10 🏞️ Kochi

I landed at Takamatsu Airport to see the cherry blossoms in Kagawa, but unfortunately the cherry blossoms in Kagawa Prefecture had not yet bloomed, so I rented a car and went to Kochi, which was already in full bloom. Niyodogawa Town is famous for its Niyodo Blue, but the cherry blossoms at the 500-year-old Gourd Sakura Park in Niyodogawa Town are spectacular. The cherry blossoms illuminated by the moon at night were divinely beautiful.

Kochi Castle, located in Kochi, is one of the 12 surviving castle towers built in the Edo period. The castle tower is usually lit up at night and you can enjoy it, but in spring, the cherry blossoms in full bloom color Kochi Castle, making it even more attractive. After sightseeing in various parts of Kochi Prefecture, I visited at night in an exhausted state, but the performance of the illuminated Kochi Castle and the cherry blossoms was so beautiful that the fatigue was blown away.

Iyo Fuji in Kochi Prefecture, Shikoku. I was impressed by the first snowy mountain, Iyo Fuji with half frost.

The place where Master Koho practiced and practiced the practice of the Dharma, the "Imperial Chef Cave" in Kochi Prefecture. When the master was practicing in the cave, he saw only the sky and the sea in front of him, so he realized the Tao, and since then he has used "Kukai" as his name. The sound of the waves here was also selected by the Ministry of the Environment as one of the "100 Sound Landscapes of Japan".

When I visited Kochi Prefecture with a gathering of relatives, I rented a car and spent two days photographing the nature of Kochi. I was driving along the mountain road toward Yasui Valley to see Niyodo Blue, but I involuntarily parked the car at the beautiful Niyodo River that stretches on and released the shutter. This scenery, which should have been only halfway to my destination, was the moment when I experienced the nature of Kochi Prefecture.

My first trip to Kochi Prefecture. I went to Katsura Beach, which I had always wanted to go to, and took a picture. I want to go to Kochi again!

Kashiwajima Blue, Kochi I saw 😯 dolphins in the wild for the first time I gave up on seeing this scene because it rained the day before in a very difficult place to go, but I'm glad 😀 that it was sunny until noon.

It is a place called Hanasato in Niyodogawa Town, Kochi Prefecture. Because it is located on the slope of the mountain, you can see beautiful cherry blossoms and peaches from the mountain road! The photo was taken as if looking down from the flower village, and the contrast with the surrounding mountains was beautiful.

It is called Ioki Cave in Kochi Prefecture. When I passed through the cave right at the entrance, my eyes opened up, and light was pouring in from the gaps in the trees. Although the footing is a little bad, there is a path that can be climbed along the stream, so you can enjoy a small valley and lush greenery.

The title is "Dancing Yosakoi Flag" I hope that one day there will be a special four days where you can feel the enthusiasm of the dancers and the audience again.

Summer twilight Thunder had been rumbling violently since early afternoon today. But these days, you might be able to see the sunset at times like this! I started to think, and I went to my usual place after 6 o'clock ^-^ Then, as expected, even the clouds were dyed red! !! Next time, I'm dying to take a picture of the surface of the water ^-^^-^^-^ Shooting date 2021.7 Shooting location Kochi Monobe River estuary Camera：SONY α7c Lens：TAMRON 17-28mm F/2.8 Di III RXD

A hometown that I can't go back to now Upper Niyodo River in Kochi Prefecture When the corona subsides, I want to go back and play in the river or fish.
