November 2023. Noshimazaki Lighthouse in Minamiboso. The waves breaking on the shore were spectacular. It was windy.

[Inubosaki Lighthouse and Shiramaru Post] It seems that there are colorful round posts all over the country. The synchronization of the blue sky, the lighthouse, and the post was interesting, so I took a picture.

I went to Kujukuri Beach in early January 2024. I experienced two mornings, and I was so impressed by its beauty that I went crazy to shoot it. Is it an impression that it is only if you are a citizen of the prefecture without the sea? Ever-changing lights and colors. Is it a scene unique to winter?

I took a picture of the night view from the Skytree East Tower in the direction of Chiba. The Tobu Isesaki Line and the Keisei Oshiage Line pass through the lower left, and the Kitajuma River passes through the right side. The Arakawa River crosses a little above the middle. Tokyo is the world's largest megacity, surpassing New York, which was the world's number one until 1955, and has continued to hold the world's number one position ever since.

I landed ?️ in the unexplored area of Minamiboso [Okinoshima] ... Even though it is called landfall, it is currently connected to the land by a sandbar, so it is strictly classified as [Riku Shigejima]. The sandbar part is a beach, so it is crowded with people in the summer, but the island is ? rather less popular. In such an area on the island, there is a place where you can enjoy a [secret cave] and a raised [ancient strata] as a ? set.

A path through a bamboo forest that passes quietly by the side of a samurai residence "Samurai's Path" Hiyodorizaka There is a slope that splits a bamboo forest that stretches straight into the sky. I was able to enjoy a healing time in a different atmosphere. It was truly a "secret place".

I live in Tsutsugaura in Isumi City The big one on the left is cut off, but is it an island? It is a rock and is called a couple rocks besides Sparrow Island. In the foreground is a small beach. It seems that it was originally a single rock. Eroded in two by the rough waves of the Pacific Ocean I heard that they broke up. It has been eroding since I started living there 18 years ago. It is a scenic spot that will be lost someday. * Because the waves are rough and the current is strong 　It is not a sea where you can swim.
