The Oigawa Railway, a railway abt train floating on Lake Tangdake. This spectacular view is fascinating. It is a push view.

While shooting the sunset and torii gate at Lake Hamana in Shizuoka Prefecture, a boat happened to pass by and I clicked the shutter with enthusiasm. The timing was right if it was a little slower, but it's not easy to do that. It was fun again.

This is a sunset taken at the Matama Coast in Oita, Kyushu. I had a wonderful time with many suns overlapping.

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.

Introducing the photos posted on "Minna no Post"! This is a pickup post on the inbound tourism information SNS "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS". Today, I would like to introduce "YUTO's post "Hokkaido Monbetsu, shooting with crab claws in the background, a tourist attraction". The sparkle of jewelry ice cream is fantastic. Monbetsu City, Hokkaido, which faces the Sea of Okhotsk, is based on agriculture, forestry, and seafood processing in addition to fishing. Monbetsu City's hometown tax return goods, which are rich in seafood, are also talked about because you can get large scallops. Monbetsu City is also famous for drift ice docking in winter. The drift ice cruise of the drift ice breaker "Garinko-go", which moves forward while crushing drift ice, is very powerful! It is also popular with tourists. There are plenty of sightseeing spots in the vicinity as well as drift ice. The "Crab Claw Statue" object, which is also a popular photo spot near Monbetsu Port, is 12 meters high, 6 meters wide, and weighs 7 tons. It was made during the "Drift Ice Art Festival" held in 1983 Showa 58. The Okhotsk Tokkari Center, where you can interact with seals, and the Hokkaido Okhotsk Drift Ice Science Center GIZA, a science center, are also recommended for sightseeing in Monbetsu City. The jewelry ice cream in the photo is the drift ice that washed up on the beach. It is not just a block of ice, but is characterized by high transparency. It varies depending on the weather conditions, but the best time to see it is usually around mid-January ~ early March. It is mainly found in the Tokachi River in Hokkaido and is popular with photographers because it can take photogenic photos. Tours are also held early in the morning when the jewelry ice is launched. ◆Monbetsu City◆ 【Access】 Plane Tokyo Haneda Airport - Okhotsk Monbetsu Airport 1 round trip each day Please check the official website for details.

This is the scenery of Qingdao in Miyazaki Prefecture. To the clear sky and the blue of the sea, The bumpy rock surface stood out. Be careful not to slip, try to stand on the rocks ... The pattern spreads as if carved by a sculptor on a whim. Gunyagunya, Pokopoko... This is creepy and a little scary... When I returned to the inn and investigated, it was a "demon's laundry rock" that had been built over a long period of time. Qingdao is an island formed by the accumulation of shells, so There are many small shells and sea grass at your feet...! When you arrive at Aoshima Shrine, The jungle-like landscape spreads out. This is a shrine, right? ... I think. Passing through the arches of plants and trees, you feel the excitement of an adventurer. With nature like a tropical country, It's like a combination of Japan cultures... It was a wonderful place where you can enjoy the extraordinary in a spacious space. I would like to go there again.

I wanted to visit "Ogawa Falls" in Minamiosumi Town, Kagoshima Prefecture once. The road to the destination is well maintained, and a beautiful river is already flowing from the hassle. When you arrive, you will see a crystal clear emerald green waterfall that will take your breath away. I thought it was a process, but even when I saw it raw, it was this color. When I went, it was a great day to shoot. It seems that if it is sunny, the amount of water is not small and the color does not develop beautifully, and if it is cloudy, the light does not enter well and it does not turn the original emerald color. If it rained the day before, it would be cloudy. The best photo opportunity is when various conditions overlap! By the way, it seems that a sunny day after a few days ago was rainy! It was a wonderful waterfall worth seeing.

It is a huge banyan located on Mt. Oishirinyama in the northern part of the main island of Okinawa. There are four trekking courses on Mt.

Autumn leaves illuminated in Showa Kinen Park. The ginkgo trees are famous Japan but the autumn leaves reflected in the pond in the garden are also beautiful.

This photo was taken one year ago on February 19. It was near the end of bloom, and I was running hard to find the living cherry blossoms. It was raining at that time, so it was hard to take pictures. This year, it seems to be blooming from the beginning of January. In Okinawa, cherry blossoms bloom in winter, and when cherry blossoms are needed, they are already scattered and become just trees. I wish it would bloom around April lol.

I often drive to Senaga Island. I took this picture because the sunset was beautiful. I remember the orange light of the setting sun was so strong that it was dazzling.

This is a photo taken when I went to Ojima Island in Okinawa with my family. I took this photo in the autumn season, but it was hot like summer and I thought that Okinawa has only summer and winter. smile

I took a picture of Manzamo that I went to with my family. Although it is a famous spot in Okinawa, it was my first time to go there, so I was drawn in by the wide and deep blue color. Even Okinawans wanted to watch it for a long time.
