Metasequoia Avenue Makinomachi Hiruguchi to Makino, Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture When setting this destination in your car navigation system, please register Makino Pickland at 0740-27-1811. Along Shiga Prefectural Road Route 287 Koaraji Makinosawa Line, which continues from the town road Sawamakino Line that runs through Makino Pickland, about 500 metasequoia trees line a 2.4 km stretch. They harmonize with the distant Nosaka Mountains and create a highland-like approach to Makino Kogen.

The autumn colors of Kankakei Gorge on Shōdoshima offered a vast panorama. By the way, aside from the ropeway, the dramatic scenery along the driving routes is unlike anything else, so I recommend it.

A canal reflecting the air of a foreign land gently cradles the colors of the evening sky. The lights from the buildings unfurl across the water, and the laughter shared with friends drifts quietly into the scene. I saw a pale, dreamlike dusk light that slipped softly into the depths of my chest.

異国の面影を写す運河が、夕空の色をそっと抱く。
建物の灯りが水面にほどけ、友達と交わす笑い声がそっと混ざる。
胸の奥にそっと忍び込む、淡い夢のような夕暮れの光を見た。

Autumn leaves are often seen during the day, but I wanted to capture the night-time foliage lit up by lights, so I took these photos. The remaining green created a pleasing contrast, and I feel I managed to capture a truly Japanese autumn. This spot is Kouchi Valley in Tsu City, Mie Prefecture, which draws many visitors during the autumn leaf season. Although it’s fairly close to my home, I had never been until I took up photography as a hobby and felt the urge to preserve it in pictures, and I was able to shoot without any people appearing in the frame. I take photos mainly for my own satisfaction, but I would be thrilled if they resonated with someone else.

日中に見に行くことの多い紅葉ですがライトアップされた夜の紅葉を残したく写真を撮りました。緑が残っていたのも逆にいいコントラストになり、日本らしい秋を捉えられたのではないかと実感しています。ここは紅葉シーズンになると多くの人が来訪する三重県の津市内にある河内渓谷というスポットです。割と近所にありながら今まで一度も行ったことはありませんでしたが、趣味としてカメラを始めた事がキッカケで写真に残したい欲が出て、まさに人の写り込みもなく撮ることができました！あくまで自己満として写真を撮っていますが誰かに刺さってくれれば尚感激です‼︎

November 22, 2025 The prefectural border between Noda City, Chiba Prefecture and Sakaimachi, Ibaraki Prefecture I photographed the sunset from the Tone River embankment on the Sakaimachi side, looking toward Kanseki-jō Castle 🏯. Behind the castle stood Mt. Fuji 🗻, and above it hung Yuzuki 🌕. I savored late autumn with the crimson sunset and moon-viewing.

Yujaku Yokagura Mizukagami: A Scene from Taijin On November 15, 2025, Yujaku Yokagura Mizukagami took place in Asaji Town, Bungoono City, Oita Prefecture in Kyushu. This one-day night kagura, held during the autumn foliage season, began thanks to the passion of local young people. Performed on a stage set above Shinji Pond, the kagura dances are mirrored on the water, creating a magical scene of reflected autumn colors and ritual performance. Taijin is the final kagura dance, expressing gratitude for the safe completion of the offering performance. In the hushed venue, the sounds of drums and flutes resound pleasantly.

【用作夜神楽水鏡】大神（たいじん）の一場面

2025年11月15日、九州の大分県豊後大野市（ぶんごおおのし）朝地町で開催された「用作夜神楽水鏡（ゆうじゃくよかぐらみずかがみ）」

紅葉の季節に1日限り行われる夜神楽で、地元の若者の熱い思いにより始まりました。心字池の上に設置された舞台で神楽の舞が披露され、水面に映る紅葉と神楽の幻想的な光景がきれいです。

大神は、無事に神楽奉納を終えたことに感謝し、最終に舞う神楽です。
静まりかえった会場で、太鼓や笛の音色が心地よく響きわたります。
