It was a cold evening with a cold wind, but the spray of the waves illuminated by the beautiful Sunset was beautiful and I couldn't help but take a picture. At "Tanoura Coast" in Hamada City, Shimane Prefecture.

In the early morning of the next day when it snowed in Kyoto unusually, I woke up early and went to Kiyomizu Temple to shoot. Shine in the world of white snow at Kiyomizu Temple The vermilion zi'an pagoda was very mysterious.

Tenjoan is a snowy landscape. I took this photo the day after it snowed in Kyoto. The snow-covered stepping stones were also nice and tasteful.

In the early morning of the next day when it snowed in Kyoto unusually, I woke up early and went to shoot while freezing. The air was clear, the sunrise was beautiful, and the snow-covered three-story pagoda matched the really nice scenery in front of me.

It is a winter view of Kamo Shrine in Keihoku, Kyoto. Impression when I arrived at Kamo Shrine by walking alone in the mountains where there was quite a bit of snow. After Prayer, I forgot about the cold for about two hours and took pictures with enthusiasm.

Calligraphy is an aesthetic expression of Japanese culture. Before experiencing calligraphy, we will ask you to change into Japanese traditional clothes. Men should wear Hakama (traditional Japanese male dress) and Doogi (traditional Japanese robe) and become a Samurai. Women will wear kimono and become a Yamato Nadeshiko. #calligraphy #kanji #kimono #samuraihonor

A special piece of Ubuyama. We are in the middle of a cold winter, but in Spring you can enjoy the green grasslands. It's fun in the cold winter, Squid must be early in Spring ~.

The first picture is that although it is winter, everyone's enthusiasm for Sensoji Temple has not been interrupted, and the fire in their hearts cannot be extinguished by the surrounding temperature. The second picture is Mt. Fuji on the day I separated from the person I cared for, and the white smoke on Mt. Fuji is like the gratitude I have in my heart for the person I took care of. The third sign was that the sun almost touched Hakone Shrine, but at that time, due to the time, he could not wait for the moment when he overlapped with the sun, as if life was full of regrets, could not be perfect, but had a different experience because it was not perfect.

The practice of swordsmanship was intended above all to nurture the mind. The samurai, through diligent practice and extreme concentration, desired to attain a state of unthoughtfulness, free of attachment or preoccupation, and thus able to respond instantly. A warrior is prepared to die each morning. In the quiet moments of the morning, he imagines himself being struck by lightning, doused by fire, or cut to pieces with a sword or spear. It is hard to remember that one step outside the doorway is the world of death. #Honor #Bushido #samuraisord #katana

Cultivation of chrysanthemums has become popular in conjunction with the New Year and the New Year, and the flowering time of chrysanthemums is adjusted by lighting at night. There are electric chrysanthemums on the mainland, but I hear that they are mainly House cultivation and cannot be seen from the outside. The warm Okinawan scenery and fantastic scenery will Unfolds! In Okinawa, it is called "Kikumination", which is a combination of chrysanthemums and illumination^^ Actually, I went to see it for the first time.

Kyoto Prefecture Miyama Karabuki no Sato Snow Festival It was a pity that there was no snow, but I wanted to take a panoramic view of the village of Miyama, so I climbed the snowy mountain alone Next time, I would like to see snow on the roof, but if that happens, there will be even more snow on the mountain side. Is it dangerous to climb snow? 🤔

The Way of the Brush Along with the martial arts, many other arts flourished, including calligraphy, tea ceremony, tea bowls, poetry, incense, and Noh drama, and a samurai needed to have knowledge of both the sword and the brush in order to be seen as a cultured gentleman. For those of us living in today's busy world, learning about the samurai spirit can give us insight into our attitude, attention, and focus, and foster the determination needed to achieve our goals to the fullest. #kangi #calligraphy #kimono #osakacastle
