Pollen photocycle A phenomenon in which bright light sources such as the sun and sunset are refracted and diffracted by particles such as pollen to form a circle of light in a circle surrounding the light source. When this is observed, I feel that spring is steadily approaching in Hokkaido.

This year will be held for the first time in three years after Corona Cherry blossom festival in the cherry blossom tunnel in Toyokawa City, Aichi Prefecture An event that everyone can enjoy under the vivid cherry blossoms I'm really happy

This is a photo of the square in front of the "Nakatani Ukichiro Snow Science Museum" in Katayamazu Onsen, Ishikawa Prefecture. There are many cherry blossoms blooming on the site, and the entrance? Exit? The atmosphere of the bridge and stairs to the was good! When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the scenery is usually good. The rest is how to cut it. I guess it's the skill of a photographer. 、、、 will do my best、、、

The rooftop of the "Nakatani Ukichiro Snow Science Museum" in Katayamazu Onsen in Ishikawa Prefecture? I took this photo at the entrance. There were very beautiful cherry blossoms, so I changed various camera settings while shooting. I think the warmth of the wood and cherry blossoms of the building and the colors made the atmosphere softer. There were many other places where cherry blossoms were blooming around Shibayama Lagoon in Katayamazu Onsen, so why not take a walk with a camera in hand? There is also a hot spring, so I think you can heal your fatigue by soaking in it on the way back.

Early morning cherry blossom tree-lined path Cherry blossoms in Hokkaido come a month late So there are no cherry blossoms yet. This photo was taken early in the morning last year when I monopolized the cherry blossom tree-lined avenue. It is a recommended place because the pink cherry blossoms shine in the still dim sky.

Himeji City Yumemaegawa Sakura Tunnel The tunnel here was very beautiful and many foreigners were ? seeing the cherry blossoms. Someday when I see this photo in the future,? I will be impressed.

Kobe City Sports Park Over ❌ the fence I'm standing in the aisle and aiming with a telephoto! I didn't go inside the fence and take pictures! Follow the rules and follow the manners when shooting!

Kobe City Sports Park Over ❌ the fence Even though the fence is low and poster is posted, there are quite a few people who easily straddle the rope and go inside and step on rape blossoms to be photographed or invaded during the tripod thing, and I understand that they want to take good photos, but it is a very bad manners place and flowers are alive. Follow the rules and follow the manners when shooting!

Kobe Municipal Oji Zoo I look forward ? to going there every year At the Hunter House

Kobe Municipal Oji Zoo Favorite composition ? Everyone is photographing the Hunter House from the courtyard of the Hunter House, but that would only be the same photo as if the cherry blossoms did not enter. I dare to shoot with this composition with a telephoto lens from the outside of the fence alone outside the Hunter House. The beautiful cherry blossoms are blooming, so I want to make the venerable building look gorgeous. However, with this composition, the outside fence is captured, so a good telephoto lens is required.

Kobe Municipal Oji Zoo Well,? the giraffes here always eat cherry blossoms in spring.

Kobe Municipal Oji Zoo The view from the Hunter House I like this scene and it is a place of memories that my parents took me to visit every year with my family, but to be honest, it is very sad because there is a problem with the scenery when a multi-story parking lot can be built in the view from here.

Kobe Municipal Oji Zoo A place of childhood memories It is ? very unfortunate and sad that this scene may also be abandoned in the future due to the university attraction issue.

Oshino Hakkai has eight ponds that spring from the rain and snowmelt of Mt. Fuji. It used to be a sacred place, but many people still visit it as a power spot. On snowy winter days, the nostalgic mountain village scenery becomes even more attractive. I was finally able to see the snowy scenery of Oshino Hakkai

Bells of Lore This monument is located in Onagawa Town, Oshika District, Miyagi Prefecture. This is the place that was damaged by the tsunami caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011. It's been 12 years this year, and the zodiac signs are just turning around At that juncture, I came here for the first time in 20 years to visit my friend's grave. That tragic natural disaster stole the smiles of many people Even so, the townspeople did not lose and desperately rebuilt the town. Such a monument that will pass on the tragic reality and the courage of the townspeople to future generations I hope you will visit us once. "Visiting the town" I feel like this is the number one support.

Biei, a hill town The Milky Way in Biei, Hokkaido I was impressed that there are so many stars

"Kobe, rediscovered" Today, the eighth stage of the series, we will deliver the view from the Kikuseidai of Mt. Maya. In the vicinity of the previous "Kobe Sakura Tunnel", which climbed uphill, there is a Maya Cable station. This cable car and the Maya ropeway further up are called the Maya View Line, and you can reach the top of Mt. Maya by connecting the two. There is an observatory called Kuseidai (本星台), and below you can see a 10 million dollar night view from downtown Kobe to Osaka Bay and the city of Osaka on the opposite bank. The word "scooping up the stars" means "scooping up the stars," and the name comes from the fact that the countless lights of the night view are likened to stars, and you can look down at the stars that you can scoop with your hands. This photo was taken just before dawn, when the eastern sky was beginning to be tinted with sunrise, and I tried to scoop up the stars that fell from the night sky to the ground, but instead I was buried in the stars. The summit is about 700m above sea level and there is a temperature difference from the city, and the air is very fresh! !! On this day, I climbed the driveway, and it seems that you can ride the Maya View Line with a bicycle using a bicycle bag. You can also rent an electric assist bicycle at the top, and you can go to Rokko Ranch.

Introducing ♨ Gunma's Japan number one hot spring resort, Kusatsu Onsen Kusatsu Onsen in winter is holding a large tree illumination event (until 2/14) And the steaming water that rises from the hot spring field is lit up, making it a very fantastic space. No matter where you look for such a space, Kusatsu is the only one! Why don't you go to Kusatsu Onsen at night in winter?

The houses lined up by the sea look as if they are floating on the sea. The first floor housed boats, and the second floor was used as a drying area for nets and fishing gear. I was finally able to go to Ine's boathouse. I enjoyed the slow flow of time in a room without a TV and this view.
