Every summer, I go to the three-tiered wall of Wakayama Prefecture. It's a power spot for me because it's good to get power when you go here.

The view from the hotel balcony was the best.

Speaking of summer traditions, sunflowers are after all! It was hot, but I felt energetic and happy.

I was energized by the sight of sunflowers.

Osaka Nagai Botanical Garden It was Coronavirus pandemic that the sunflowers were in full bloom, but the sunflowers seemed to be fun and made me feel happy.

World Heritage Terraced rice fields of Kasuga in Nagasaki Prefecture. It was a luxurious feeling to be able to monopolize the 360-degree view without anyone there.

Terraced rice fields of Kasuga, Nagasaki Prefecture The superb view of the empty terraced rice fields was so wonderful that I could not put it into words.

Bathe on the balcony!

It is the Tsunoshima Bridge in Yamaguchi Prefecture. The beautiful sky and sea, the summery clouds, the drive in it was the best. It is a spot that you will want to go to every year.

It was an afternoon day when the university had just entered its summer vacation. It was usually 30 degrees that day, so the temperature did not change much inside and outside the house, so I encountered this scenery when I went outside. I hurried home, grabbed my camera, and released the shutter. In fact, I encountered the same format in the same place last year. I'm looking forward to next year.

Summer of Japan Morning sun at Dafu Mountain In Hyogo Prefecture

This is a photo of fireworks with friends gathered for the first time in years. Since I became an adult, the places where I live have been different, and I can't easily get together like I did when I was a child, but even when I saw them for the first time in a long time, I felt that I was able to return to my youth like I did back then, and I don't want it to end, but I thought that maybe it is because of the time that it ends, that it seems ephemeral like this fireworks.

Summer is all about shaved ice! It was ✨ a luxurious dish with a lot of mangoes on it.

Boy's summer. During summer vacation, I chased my favorite insects until the sun went down.

Omi Takashima, Lake Biwa. Living in Osaka finding a darker place is not so easy. Since places closer to lake biwa have much less light pollution I planned on doing some night photography that day. But the plan changed totally when this place was covered with a blanket of clouds even when the forecast said it will be a clear night. But the day went without any regret since I had this amazing blue hour view. I finally came to my senses and thought to myself not to worry about things I can't control and cherish what I have.

Shiroyama beach, Takahama, Fukui. JR Obama line has a lot of beautiful hidden spots along the northern coast and I found this interesting place when I was looking in map.

A casual piece of Minamiboso City, Chiba Prefecture. I took a picture because the feeling of the color that entered my eyes was very good when I walked somehow. I like the feeling of midsummer.

A small summer found in Saiko Healing Village near Saiko, one of the Fuji Five Lakes! The ramune chilled in the tub makes you cool just by looking at it! The duck parent and child floating on the edge also look cool lol

A field in Noshiro City, Akita Prefecture. Red is cute!

Aomori's Nebuta Festival! I was overwhelmed by the dynamic turns at the intersection and the power of the Nebuta. I hope that enthusiasm will return next year! And I want to go see it again!!

Summer in Kyoto is the Gion Festival! The scene of the yamaboko turning around is truly a masterpiece. I hope that next year will bring back that traditional beauty and enthusiasm.
