I took this photo on the riverbed near the school, where I went to my high school photography club. It is a troublesome weed that usually grows on the ground, but when I took a photo, it bloomed like a fireworks in the sky, and it was very interesting to see what I usually see when I change my point of view. In addition, the "sticking mush" taken in the backlight of the setting sun seemed to invert the light shadows between the sky and the blooming fireworks, signaling the end of summer.

HRK the END
Aug. 27, 2023
I went to the Takasaki Festival fireworks festival in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture for the first time. While being watched over by Takasaki White Robe Daikannon, which is a landmark of Takasaki City, the fireworks festival ended without rain. The next tournament was short, but the fireworks was great, with 15,000 shots in 45 minutes. Before the start, lightning was happening in various places and rain clouds were gathering, but only the area around my area near Takasaki White Robe Daikannon was covered with clouds and there was no cloud overhead. It started raining right after the end of the fireworks festival, so it was a valuable experience that I thought was saved from raining thanks to Kannon-sama.

Minakami in Gunma Prefecture is a truly urban oasis which also known as the heart of Japan. This photo was taken from norn minakami flower park which is really a hiden gem of Japan. Many people know about this as a heaven for the ski lover but interestingly in summer also it looks so beautiful. Not only daffodils but also tulip and flowers are bloomed here. On this distal one can see the snow capped Japanese Alps and the valley is full with flowers which look so amazing.

On May 27th, the remaining snow disappeared and I drove comfortably, and I took a picture of the sea of clouds at the highest altitude point Japan Shibutoge National Highway of the Shiga Kusatsu Kogen Route (National Route 292), Japan which was closed during the winter. It is a famous spot. So I will introduce you to the secret places. There is a wide roadside strip about 1.5 km from the highest elevation point to Kusatsu. There is a small hill on the side where you park your car, and you can easily climb it. The 360-degree panorama from there is superb! The photo is aimed at the sea of clouds in the direction of Kusatsu Onsen.
