I love the reflection the bridge and surrounding treeline makes on the surface of the river in this photo. Really beautiful stuff. I'd like to visit Aizu-Wakamatsu because I've heard that Aizu-Wakamatsu Castle is awesome and also the local sake in the area is supposed to be really good as well. I'm not too familiar with the area but I know Aizu-Wakamatsu is surrounded by mountains and that Mt. Bandai is over there. Maybe that's it in the background? I'm not too sure, but whatever the case may be it's a really breathtaking photo. Japan's snowscapes really are a gift that keeps on giving. Especially this year there's a ton of beautiful landscapes like this and getting to see them posted everywhere is really great. Everyone has such amazing photos it makes me want to try my hand at photography ?. Maybe someday, we'll see lol

Photographed in January 2021 at Hiraizumi and Chusonji Temple in Iwate Prefecture. In front of the Golden Hall

In Sapporo City, Hokkaido, at the bicycle parking lot of a certain shopping mall. It is not uncommon for sleds to be a means of transportation for small children in Hokkaido, but I took a picture of two brightly colored sleds lined up in a bicycle parking lot in the middle of winter when there are no bicycles. On the way home, I can imagine small children who seem to be having fun on this sled and parents pulling their belongings home with their purchases.

Kamakura in Iiyama City, Nagano Prefecture Amazing snow! I ate a pot in a kamakura!

Take a break with Goron at the ski resort From the air

Illumination beautiful! I even touched the snow!

My daughter grilled for the first time after giving birth

Togakushi Ski Resort The ice trees are wonderful

My second son and the ski resort, the scenery was great!

At Hida Takayama

In Shirakawa-go

The place was Mt. Kuju in Oita Prefecture, and when I went, it seemed that a cold wave was coming, so it was a white silver world. What you can see in the back is the five peaks of Aso. This is one of the photos that has shuttered the mysterious scenery.

Beautiful Morgenrot in the Northern Alps.

Haru elm tree in Toyokoro, Hokkaido It is a snowy landscape.

This is a photo taken when I went to the first visit in 2021. I have been praying that Corona will end soon!

Winter in Kasai Rinkai Park

The narcissus and the large Ferris wheel in Kasai Rinkai Park were beautiful.

The fountain in Hibiya Park was starting to freeze

In Hibiya Park in winter, birds staring at the ice

We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the beautiful snowy scenery. It was a happy moment to be enveloped in 360 degrees and frost! !️

I was ? able to see a superb scenery that made me feel tired from the hard climbing. The blue sky and frost go perfectly together! !️

Urban snow cover ? Hisaya-Odori Park, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture

Morning at Niikurayama Sengen Shrine. Mt. Fuji enters the torii gate, and the scenery is very magnificent.

Winter in Japan. After New Year's cooking, rest ??your stomach with porridge with a gentle taste, January 7 is the Day of Seven Herbs. I pray for a disease-free life in my family, and I will ?✨ have healthy rice again today.

A little later than usual tonight, work had me running late today. But wow! This is so beautiful! It seems like Nagano has so much beautiful scenery. I love the different ropeways that can be found all over Japan as well. I'd love to take a ride on this Kitayatsugatake Ropeway it looks like? Gonna have to wrap up pretty good though for this lol. It's crazy that even this far south of Hokkaido there's so much snow this year. Maybe it's normal for Nagano, I'm not really sure about the weather there normally, but it makes for some lovely photography at least! I'm going to try and get out this weekend, away from the crowds and try and get some fresh air if I can. Hopefully it goes well. Been staying away from crowded areas by just staying home but if I can go on a small trip and still avoid people then it should be fine!
