Metaseikochia trees in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture We aimed for a day when it snowed. It started snowing at dawn, and the Water of the Water on the road began to increase, and I was able to take a reflection shot.

This is a landscape photo taken when I visited Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture. I thought the beauty of Lake Biwa peeking through the trees on a sunny day was the coolest, so I posted it for people who like landscape photography to see. Best regards. I'm not familiar with hashtags, so I'll add them as soon as I 😂 can

Shot at Rainbow Yellowtail. The theme is the Yurikamome line, and it is edited in a chic way. Japan is the only place where buildings, trains, and the sea come together.

This photo was taken in July last year. Around 1 a.m., there was a lot of lightning over Sendai City, where I live, so I mustered up the courage and energy to go to the Observation decks of Aoba Castle Ruins to take pictures alone. The shooting time was around 1:30, and the place is Famous as a haunted Spot, and on this day, I was immersed in shooting alone in the rain with an umbrella and thunder lol. But the moment this photo appeared on the camera screen, I forgot myself and was happy with my whole body.

📍 Cafe Yoridokoro InaVillagegasaki Main Store 〒248-0024 Kanagawa Prefecture Kamakura City InaVillage Gazaki 1-12-16 Breakfast in Enoshima is egg-covered rice from the Famous "Cafe Yoridokoro". The fluffy Renge and golden egg yolk are the best One of a kind. Of course, the Dried fish I ate with it was also delicious because I could feel the taste of the fish. Cafe Yoridokoro InaVillagegasaki Main Store also has terrace seats where you can watch the view of Enoden running in front of you while eating The Japan breakfast. It's a special breakfast that I don't make at home, but if I can afford it next time, I'll try to make it myself・・・・・ Squid it's difficult ...

Today, I attended the Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine Monthly Festival. The Kawazu cherry blossoms on the Shingashi River were in full bloom. 🌸

End of Ume Plum Rain With rain that comes and goes suddenly The sound of thunder breaking through the sky When your heart is rough and you want to go out for a change of pace A rain woman who gets such weather only At a temple in Kamakura where water streams Peering into a floating water pool of hydrangeas The world that can be seen through the gaps in the flowers It was shaking very quietly

It is said to be the best bloom in the last 20 years I have seen the Ume Plum of "Kazahaya no Sato". As you can see. If you don't see it, it's a loss! Tsu City, Mie Prefecture Prefecture "Kazahaya no Sato" 2025/3/8

It's been a little while. Actually, I'm currently busy preparing for YAMATO FILM FESTIVAL 2025, which takes place the day after tomorrow on Sunday, March 16. This year's festival will screen a carefully selected lineup of short films chosen from many submissions across the country last year, presented all at once in one big showing. We will show 12 films selected for the 15th Short Film Competition, two special works by last competition's winners, and, not to be outdone, several film directors who are also competition judges made one film each for this program. That makes 15 films in total. They offer a variety of themes and flavors. Admission is free. You can watch all 15 films at no charge. Anyone can drop by and watch, so it's a great deal, honestly. I hope there will be at least one film you like or one that somehow lingers in your mind. Now, for publicity we created posters, flyers, and a visitor pamphlet. This time we deliberately unified their concept color. In spring they put down strong roots and delight with vivid color, and before you know it they turn into downy seeds that ride the wind and spread far and wide. The dandelion, also called the dandelion, inspired a color that represents the small film's solid entertainment value, its strength rooted deeply so it will not be lost going forward, and its freedom to spread everywhere rather than stay in one place—things we wanted to value. Well, that's just what the person in charge happened to think. After all, these are just amateur-made ads, but if one happens to catch someone's eye and makes them go "huh?", leading them to discover the world of short films they didn't know before, I would be extremely, extremely happy. I hope such a miracle happens. We look forward to seeing many of you. YAMATO FILM FESTIVAL 2025 Sunday, March 16 — Program starts at 1:00 PM (doors open at 12:30 PM). Estimated end time: 5:00 PM. 1-8-1 Yamato Minami, Yamato City, Kanagawa Prefecture Yamato Cultural Creation Center Sirius, 1st floor, Yamato Arts and Culture Hall, Sub Hall No registration required · Free admission Speakers: Daisuke Miyazaki (film director), others https://www.yamato-kankou.com/shortmovie/...

📍 Akibayama Main Shrine Akiba Shrine (841 Ryoka, Spring Town, Tenryu-ku, Hamamatsu-shi, Shizuoka) 【Overview】 Deep in the mountains of Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, at an elevation of 866 meters, is Akibayama Main Shrine Akiba Shrine. Mt. Akiba is called Mt. Shintai, and it was founded in the 2nd year of Wado (709 AD). It is the Main Shrine of Akiba Shrine, which has more than 400 companies nationwide. ---------------- and Lower Shrine and Upper Shrine, the photograph shows the "Torii (shrine gate) of happiness" in the Upper Shrine. Akibayama is also very famous as the god of fire prevention, and as a local in Hamamatsu City, I am very indebted to him. Even as a child, even if you don't understand the kanji "Akiha-san!", the sound is familiar to your ears. In fact, when I was mentally ill, the first thing my mother brought me to for a change of pace was the Lower Shrine in Akibayama. (Actually, he wanted to take me to the Upper Shrine, but considering my physical strength and physical condition, he decided to go down to the Lower Shrine.) ） That's how important the shrine is to me. Now that I have moved to Tokyo and am living happily, this photo was taken when I stopped by early in the morning on my way back to my parents' house. In fact, on this day, when I arrived at the Car parking lot in Akibayama, I and trouble that my Car was about to break down. However, fortunately, I was able to reach the cars parking lot without stopping in the middle of the slope. In addition, in the restroom of the Car parking lot, I was able to collect the Water used for the worst first aid, and on the way back, I was able to go down and slide safely into the car parts store while cooling the engine. Akibayama helped us with this as well. That's how I feel. ---------------- It may be difficult to visit because of the distance from Hamamatsu Station on the Shinkansen, but I have no regrets about going. It is a shrine that can be affirmed. If you're lucky, you may be able to see a sea of clouds or as far away as Enshu Nada. As for me, I recommend visiting in the morning. It's a place ☺ where the air is clean, there are few people, and your mind is calm. 【！ Caution! Please refrain from destroying the scenery of the shrine, polluting it, or causing inconvenience.
