Summer doesn't represent only cicadas it also represent the beautiful butterflies. During the summer time various kind of butterfly can be seen specially in the park area. This photo was taken from Hamarikyu garden in Tokyo. This garden is famous for its summer cosmos flowers. Butter on the red summer cosmos looks magnificent. For taking this photo I need to wait for a long time since the butterfly was not sitting at all. But finally I was very satisfied.

This is one of the photos I took when I went to the fireworks festival in Oda. There were few street lights in the countryside, so the fireworks light looked very beautiful, and as the fireworks festival began, I felt that summer was almost over, and I felt a little lonely.

Local scenery of Toyama Prefecture Summer still blue rice fields and sunset~ The clouds were nice and beautiful~ ?

I visited many times Shinjuku national park but after watching "Garden of words" I fall more in love with this garden and I decided to visit it in summer season. Luckily the day was rainy day. It was absolutely eye soothing. It was taken on that day. The view from kyu goryo tei is fresh and green. Location: Shinjuku national garden

Summer vegetables ? The vegetables and hamburger steak were delicious (๑ ́ڡ'๑)

This is one shot taken around a building with a beautiful bamboo forest in the Bikan district. When I see the demon lantern immersed in the water, the blue of the bamboo combined with it makes me feel cool.

A Japanese aesthetic concept has developed around the beauty of a scene of a garden or nature framed by a circle window. The circle windows are referred to as the "Window of Enlightenment". This was a unique experience during my Kamakura trip. I was very excited to see this place. Previously once I tried to go to Genkou-an shrine during my Kyoto trip but unfortunately, it was closed at that time. Finally, during the summer, I got a chance to see this beautiful view at Meigetsuin temple. The calm and peaceful atmosphere of the shrine already gave peace of mind but this view has something special.

Last sparkler with family. Fireworks are wonderful when they shine, but the moment they disperse also feels like summer. It feels like summer in Japan, including the place where you enjoy "The End".

Speaking of summer, fireworks! of the last year before Corona Toyama Prefecture Shinminato Kaiomaru Park Fireworks Festival ? It was very powerful! It's been ruined this year~. I hope to see it again next year~ ?

Crepe myrtle looks good ☀️ in the blue sky after all

Towards the sky!

The long-awaited local fireworks festival was held for the first time in three years. Although it was not the same as before, it was ✨ a very moving time to be able to share the local tradition with my family and many people for the first time in a long time.

A summer tradition in Nogi Town, Tochigi Prefecture, sunflowers. Many sunflowers were exposed in the morning sun.

Sunflower is her soul flower, as sunflowers are the epitome of bright, happy and cheer, her vibrant and happiness made this frame perfect. This was her first ever visit any sunflower field and you can feel that happiness. This picture was taken at Kiyose sunflower field in Tokyo

I went to the Nagaoka Fireworks Festival in Niigata Prefecture for the first time. I was moved from start to finish.

Photo taken on August 6, 2022. From the summit of Mt. Takachiho. The summer grass fluttered in the wind and was refreshing! It's the time of year when the flowers don't bloom anymore, but seeing the tall and energetic grass cheers me up.

Speaking of summer, the sunflower is the sunflower. After all it is beautiful.

It is "Kowatari no Yumekake Wind Chime" held throughout August in Kodo Town, Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture. Various kinds of wind chimes are hung throughout the town, and when the wind blows, they ring all at once. We also do wind chime coloring experiences and yukata dressing sessions. There is also a small river flowing, and how about ? cooling off with the sound of wind chimes and the murmur of the river?

Tambo art is one of the most popular artistic activity in Japan during the summer time. In tambo art the whole paddy field used as a canvas. Different colored or varieties of rice or paddy are planted to create the an amazing picture depending on the theme of that year. This is from Fukui prefecture's Takefu knife village where the school students prepared this beautiful cherry tree using tambo art. Its really very attractive and unique activity which everyone would love to see. The best time to enjoy this kind art varies but August to September might be the best time.

The last couple photos I wanted to post from our trip to Takamatsu. The first one was at one of the stations by Ritsurin Park. It just tells you not to try and go past the railway crossing after the bar has come down but I thought the pictures on it were pretty funny lol. The second was just one of the manholes that I thought looked nice. Snapped a photo of it outside of Takamatsu Castle

Natural ice shaved ice in Nikko City. The head is not keen, it is fluffy, and it is shaved ice.

Summer vacation. Parent-child trip to Kozushima! Climb Mt. Tenjo from the first station. Feel the wind and summer in the superb scenery.

At Imizu Shrine in Toyama Prefecture, the first time "Mizuomikuji" was served in the summer. It was a hot day, but it was cool~ ?

During the summer times the mountains looks so green with the fresh leafs. From the Hinode park in Hokkaido I got this very picturesque photo where a vast range of mountains can be seen. Additionally the patchwork fields creates the scenario more beautiful.

Shot in a townhouse in Kyoto. Summer in Japan is not only lively, but also moist and quiet.
