I love the reflection the bridge and surrounding treeline makes on the surface of the river in this photo. Really beautiful stuff. I'd like to visit Aizu-Wakamatsu because I've heard that Aizu-Wakamatsu Castle is awesome and also the local sake in the area is supposed to be really good as well. I'm not too familiar with the area but I know Aizu-Wakamatsu is surrounded by mountains and that Mt. Bandai is over there. Maybe that's it in the background? I'm not too sure, but whatever the case may be it's a really breathtaking photo. Japan's snowscapes really are a gift that keeps on giving. Especially this year there's a ton of beautiful landscapes like this and getting to see them posted everywhere is really great. Everyone has such amazing photos it makes me want to try my hand at photography ?. Maybe someday, we'll see lol

Long day out today. Figured I'd check everyone's posts before bed and wow! I'd not heard of Mt. Yoshino, although I can see why Toyotomi Hideyoshi would have loved it. The scenery is truly beautiful here. I can't even imagine how beautiful the cherry blossoms must be if they're even more amazing than the snowy landscape in this photo. I suppose Kinpusenji Temple is the large building just to the right of the center of the photo. I'd love to give it a visit. It's Nara too, so hopefully I can see some deer during my visit. If not then I'll just have to stop by the park to watch people being chased for their crackers? Lovely place though, I'm interested in seeing what it looks like in Autumn as well. Japan never ceases to amaze me with it's colorful foliage so I can imagine Mt. Yoshino is no exception either!

Beautiful Morgenrot in the Northern Alps.

Haru elm tree in Toyokoro, Hokkaido It is a snowy landscape.

In Hibiya Park in winter, birds staring at the ice

We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the beautiful snowy scenery. It was a happy moment to be enveloped in 360 degrees and frost! !️

I was ? able to see a superb scenery that made me feel tired from the hard climbing. The blue sky and frost go perfectly together! !️

Such a beautiful place. Leave it to Nagano Prefecture to have yet another amazing sightseeing destination surrounded by beautiful scenery. Watching the video felt so calming. It's such a serene atmosphere and feels completely detached from the rest of the world. It makes me imagine an earth where humanity no longer exists and everything is being reclaimed by the earth. I like how there's several different shrines in the area. The gate Zuijinmon just feels like it's a boundary between worlds too; very surreal. The massive trees reminded me of the redwoods back when I visited the redwood forest in California. I'd really love to explore this area and find some hidden views. I wonder if it's changed much in the 8 years since this video was taken.

Morning at Niikurayama Sengen Shrine. Mt. Fuji enters the torii gate, and the scenery is very magnificent.

A little later than usual tonight, work had me running late today. But wow! This is so beautiful! It seems like Nagano has so much beautiful scenery. I love the different ropeways that can be found all over Japan as well. I'd love to take a ride on this Kitayatsugatake Ropeway it looks like? Gonna have to wrap up pretty good though for this lol. It's crazy that even this far south of Hokkaido there's so much snow this year. Maybe it's normal for Nagano, I'm not really sure about the weather there normally, but it makes for some lovely photography at least! I'm going to try and get out this weekend, away from the crowds and try and get some fresh air if I can. Hopefully it goes well. Been staying away from crowded areas by just staying home but if I can go on a small trip and still avoid people then it should be fine!

When I heard that it was winter in Japan, I was reminded of the snowy country of Hokkaido. #Biei in Hokkaido is famous as the blue pond. The contrast between the mysterious blue pond and the pure snow was very beautiful.

Excited by the unfamiliar snowy scenery I forgot about the cold and clicked the shutter crazy

Car coated on ice. The power of nature is amazing.

Lake Shoji is the most visited of the Fuji Five Lakes. It is a very quiet and pleasant place.

There is always a wood-burning stove in the lobby. It is a place of relaxation for everyone.

Photographed from the ropeway of Kita Yatsugatake. It was sunny that day, so we took the ropeway. However, when I reached the summit, it was cloudy、、。 I can't read the weather in the mountains. The summit was very cold at -12°C.

Couple Rock ✨ It's tasteful ^ ^

It is Tatsusawa Fudo Falls in Fukushima Prefecture. It is famous for its spots where you can take pictures of autumn leaves and waterfalls in autumn, but the snow and waterfall in winter were also beautiful.

What you can see in the back is the village of Oshi in Kanayama Town, Fukushima Prefecture. I took this photo with a train running next to the Tadami River. The greenery is beautiful in the snowless season, so I would like to go there again.

Yunagi Sunset ~Megami~

This photo was taken on the shore of Lake Kawaguchi in Yamanashi Prefecture. It had snowed the day before, and it was quite cold in the early morning of this day. Therefore, the air was clear and Mt. Fuji looked very beautiful.

Located in the Kuju Mountains of Oita Prefecture When the trees get a big cold snap, Bloom (^^) snow flowers Fantastic like cherry blossoms A moment to forget the fatigue of mountain climbing Have become! location,Kokonoe, Oita,Makinoto Pass camera,SONY a7r4 lens,FE24-70mm F2.8GM

Walking the dog on a day when it snowed for the first time in a long time

The only one who is happy to get a lot of rain is my son lol. But last year it didn't pile up at all, so I'm glad I was able to play in the snow ^o^ Snow removal work is also fun for children! It's fun, isn't it? ?

Since it was New Year's, I took a dip in the clear sky. My eldest daughter seemed to enjoy being able to give it to herself, and she gave it as long as time allowed. As I gave it to him many times, I wondered if he got the hang of it, and he said that he would do it himself, and he did his best even though he was pulled by the wind.
