There is a climbing kiln that bakes pottery in Awaji City, Awaji Island. Only once a year in February, firewood is put in for 4 days without sleeping, the temperature is raised, and a large flame burns from the kiln in the back. Many works by potter Koichi Maeda are born in this kiln. There is such a scene in the morning drama Scarlett, and a time full of passion is wonderful, and slowly cools down over time, and a new work is born. The attitude of sparing no effort and working hard towards the goal was cool, and I learned a lot from it because I keenly realized that I have to face various things and work hard. I am very grateful that I made an appointment last year and had a valuable experience.

Festival held in Nagasaki City from October 7 to 9 [Nagasaki Kunchi] It is designated as an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property of Japan. The float in the photo is [Kokkodesho] It is a popular votive dance among Nagasaki kunchi. The rough skill of throwing a float high into the sky and grabbing it with the thrown arm outstretched, masculinity, and bravery of shouting There is no doubt that it will be full of charm that will hook the viewer. I think that other votive dances are also unique and very enjoyable festival events. There are many stalls, and there is no doubt that both children and adults can enjoy a fun time! !! I wanted to capture the power and dynamism of the moment when I threw it high into the sky, so I shot with the shutter speed down. I think I was able to capture the movement of the hand and the expression of the bearer well in my own way.
