It was an afternoon so pleasant in the autumn breeze that I found myself swaying along with the silvergrass 🌾

Yusaku Park autumn leaves ❚ Autumn foliage status as of November 25, 2025 Yusaku Park in Asaji Town, Bungoono City, Oita Prefecture It is one of Oita Prefecture’s representative spots for autumn colors. The maple leaves around Shinji Pond are just past their peak. Areas farther from the pond are further along in their color change, offering a lovely mix of green, yellow, and red leaves. Fallen leaves have increased with the wind. Some spots still show beautiful foliage, while others have many fallen leaves. We will update the foliage status as it changes. The 2025 Yusaku Park light-up has ended.

At Showa Kinen Park on the middle day of a three-day holiday to see the autumn light-up. More than the ginkgo-lined avenue lit by countless lights, my eyes kept drifting to the crowds writhing beneath the leaves... What did I even come to see? I captured that confusion using a prism filter combined with a Kenko Black Mist No.5 lens. Camera: Lumix DC-GH6 LEICA FG50-200mm Focal length 50mm Shutter speed 1/3 sec Aperture f4 ISO 500

I photographed the World Cultural Heritage Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Route, capturing the Nakahechi course dyed in autumn colors at Toganoki Chaya and Hosshinmon. Bright autumn leaves on sunny days are of course beautiful, but I also love the calm, mellow scenery on rainy days.

Monet's Pond in Hyogo🍁 Thanks to the efforts of our volunteers, it has become this beautiful. Thank you 😊

Photographed in the Japanese garden area of a large public park in Hiratsuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture. I felt a strong sense of autumn in Japan from the fall colors and the Japanese garden.

A little over a year since I took delivery of the car. I couldn't take photos with the autumn leaves last year so this year my wish came true🍁 I couldn't put the top down in summer because it was too hot but the weather turned just right for an open-top drive after a long time On a drive, I stopped by Kiminomori Metasequoia Trees in Oamishirasato City The white Copen and the orange-lined trees matched perfectly, giving a full autumn vibe✨

November 24th The western sky over Azumino is turning red The Northern Alps suddenly lit up with sunset colors The weather is expected to worsen from tomorrow

I went to see Wakayama Castle. The castle itself is a reconstruction after the original was destroyed almost a hundred years ago, but the real treasure is the Nishi-no-Maru garden. The fall colors were really vibrant, and were reflected on the pond. The peaceful atmosphere made it hard to believe that the castle grounds were surrounded by a city! Since its free for viewing, you can't beat the value. If I am ever in the area again, I want to see what it looks like in other seasons as well.

I aimed to take a photo that makes you feel the autumn breeze.

At a shrine I happened upon, the orange sunset and the crimson autumn leaves made a striking impression on me.

Date taken: November 22 Location: Momiji Garden (Momiji-en) at Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, Kyoto Prefecture I came to Kitano Tenmangu Shrine because the plum wine festival was taking place. The red maple leaves framed Uguisubashi Bridge, creating an especially striking scene. Also, I noticed something at a glance while posting: the photo was taken on what happens to be “Good Couple Day.” Could it be a coincidence that the man and woman who unintentionally ended up in the picture are framed by the autumn leaves?

A frosty morning Is this the remains of a ranch? I greeted the sunrise at an abandoned farmhouse with a silo. Most of the fields have been harvested and soon snow will be piling up.

It was a little misty and had a pleasantly moist atmosphere. Shot on iPHONE OidaDaira Park, Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture Saturday, November 11, 2025

At Shuzenji Niji-no-Sato, we came for a family stroll 🚶‍♀️ Here’s a photo of my son being held by his mom as he soaks in the feeling of autumn ☺️

November 15, 2025 Mount Fuji Lake Shoji I aimed for the few moments just before sunrise to take this photo. At last the air cleared and I was delighted to see a beautiful Mount Fuji🗻! The row of boats in the foreground helps create a peaceful lakeside scene.

I took an aerial photo of the floating island on Anegawa Dam in autumn. Anegawa Dam Observatory, Maibara City, Shiga Prefecture November 2025 ※Anegawa Dam Management Office has been notified ※Comprehensive unmanned aircraft flight permit from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

The autumn leaves dyed both the trees and the ground red, creating a beautiful scene. Although the park rarely sees many visitors, I photographed how the wooden rest area—seemingly built to warmly welcome the occasional guest—perfectly matched the autumn foliage.

Is this a Buddha statue in Todoroki Valley? It's very strange how its face seems different every time I look at it. It is a Buddha statue located in Todoroki Valley. It's very strange that you look different every time you see it.

This is the autumn foliage at Todoroki Valley in Tokyo. Even in summer, it stays cool and makes a perfect spot for a stroll.

I took these photos against the large wall of Yokohama Stadium📸 The model is vocalist SAGI. They are active in Kanto. I have photographed promotional and jacket images, among others.
