As the dank Ume plum rain sky continues, the long-awaited Tendo-sama! !! I took my three-year-old son out and enjoyed Nature at Denoyama Park in Kobayashi City, Miyazaki Prefecture. It was fun to drift on the lake in a boat under the blue sky, looking at ducks by the water, the blue sky for the first yellowtail time in a long time, and the carp that came to feed on it. In addition to being on the surface of the lake, the wind was blowing with only a slight flutter of hair at the time of shooting, and I was able to enjoy the coolness.

Kabira Bay 2023.07 Memories of my trip to Okinawa Since it was close to evening, I was able to take a picture when no one was around. You can't swim in Kabira Bay because the tide stream fast, but you can take a walk in the bay in a glass boat. You can relax while looking at the seabed in the beautiful bay.

Fuchu, Hiroshima Recommended Spot in Hiroshima #Bingo Kokufu Festival One piece 📸 with handmade fireworks from the Bingo Kokufu Festival held the other day I tried hand-held fireworks again this year, but I couldn't take the best photos because I couldn't 😭 take continuous shots at the right time due to the clogged buffer I thought this was the most decent, so I'll 😅 put it out first The cheap shutter release doesn't feel like you're pressing the button, and when you think you can't press it, you turn it inside out, or if you press it forcefully, it locks, and you can't stop continuous shooting, and the camera is out of breath and the shutter can't be released. Hiroshima dialect It was! 🤣

Hiroshima Fukuyama Tomonoura 　 Hiroshima Recommendation festival Spot #Shinto ritual #Numana Shrine One of the three major fire Festival of Japan, the Flame Paper Festival, is a hot festival in which three large torches weighing 150 kg are carried up and slowly ascended over a three-hour period while taking turns on the stone steps to the worship hall. The Chinese at the festivals were covered with sparks and covered with water! It was very powerful! Will the camera burn? Or will it get wet? I'm determined to take on the challenge of shooting! All the photographers were sweaty and amazing! 😂 It was too much fun, but it was 🤣 too exhausting It will last for a while!

Farm Tomita! Colorful flowers and lavender🪻 in the back It's really beautiful, isn't it? ✨ It's great 💕 to take a walk in a place like this Photo taken on 📷 7/13

Summer in Okinawa "Eisa" / Speaking of summer in Okinawa, it is "Acer". On July 7th, I went to the Okinawaya Eisa Festival held on Kokusai Street. Eisa is a dance to send the spirits of ancestors to the other world on the Kyu-Bon, and it is an event in which people parade around the village while beating large drums and drums and dancing with their hands on the song sanshin. We also pray for the safety of each family and the safety of their families. The performance of jumping in the second half of the performance was a masterpiece! After this, we will make many jumps. In the heat, this performance is amazing! It is the biggest attraction of the Sakaeguchi Youth Association. At this time, it started to rain, but the performance was completed safely until the end.

It has become reliable. ^^ I hope that this child will grow up and carry on the traditions of Okinawa. The sound of the Drums heard nearby is powerful and really touches my heart.

It was very hot on this day, but when I heard the sound of Eisa's big Drum and tightening Drum, I wanted to sing with Acer Acer♬ and my blood started to rush ^^ I forgot about the heat!
