(2024-08-08) Lake Biwa Grand Fireworks Festival Part 2 I've always wanted to take a picture of the "Lake Biwa Grand Fireworks Festival" Held in on August 8 I went on a bullet tour (driven by a friend) Since last year, this fireworks festival has been charged and a fence has been set up. Although it is controversial that it cannot be viewed freely This was a twisted tactic of looking down from the rest area in the Halfway up of Mt. Hiei Of course, this used to be free (the Mt. Hiei skyline that passes through the rest area is a toll road), but in conjunction with the charging of bleachers, fireworks 7,500 yen last year and 10,000 yen this year will be charged for cars parked for viewing purposes (;' ∀') According to the Information on the Internet, there would be no place to put the tripod at noon on the day, so we left quite early I was picked up at 0:00 a.m. and departed. ↓ Arrived at the site around 7:20 ↓ Wait for 12 hours until 19:30 ↓ 19:30~20:30 Appreciation + Photography ↓ 21:00~05:00 The worst 12 hours of my life on-site standby (outdoors under the blazing sun) Bright red on both arms, around the neck, and around the face (;' ∀') With SPF 50 sunscreen, it only lasts a few hours. Even though I tried to secure a good place to go so far By the time we arrived, the best shooting spots were already filled with tripods According to the preliminary survey, it was said that it would be filled with tripods after noon. So we were prepared to give ourselves plenty of time if we arrived after 7 a.m. Completely lagging behind (;' ∀') It was too late ww However, I'm glad that I was in a position where I could shoot without any problems at all if I paid a little attention to the angle of view

A photo at the Makuhari Fireworks Festival The fireworks that were launched with the opening signal shone in the still bright sky. The contrast with the sunset and the dark blue sky is beautiful, and it feels summery. I want to use it as a yukata pattern. The fireworks in the night sky are beautiful, but I like the fireworks that shine in the slightly bright sky.

Asahibashi 🌉 I really like 🎇 the three large fireworks and the shadows of the three parents and children holding hands with the small children in front of the bridge
