Cleaning up a dondo-yaki fire in a mountain village in Niigata Prefecture. The "Suminuri Festival" was also held, so my face is black with charcoal. Even though it was snowing, the old-fashioned appearance was impressive.

"The Snowy Scenery of Togakushi that Overwhelms" The huge cedar trees of Togakushi Shrine Okusha in Nagano Prefecture are always overwhelming. When I came early in the morning, it was as cold as -8 °, but the moment I saw this cedar avenue, I forgot the cold and stopped to look at it.

This was my first visit to any winter wonderland. It was taken from mount Zao, Yamagata prefecture. My intension was to see the snowmonster but to reach the snowmonster we need to take the ropeway. From that ropeway we got this fantastic view.

First snow in late autumn

A collaboration of cherry blossoms and snow photographed in Sugamo last year. It's so beautiful that it's hard to forget.

Chichibu City, Saitama in winter "Icicle of the Thirty Hammers" near the mouth of the three peaks The icicles I saw for the first time were different from the documents and videos It gave me a fantastic impression somehow. It was normal to feel cold, but somehow I felt warmth.

I have climbed once in the past summer and once in winter, but I was finally blessed with the weather at Mt. Eniwa-dake for the third time and was able to see the best view. There was no wind at the summit, and I was able to enjoy the climb slowly. The last photo is the night view of the previous time.

The summit of Mt. Eniwa, the highest peak on the shores of Lake Shikotsu, the northernmost ice-free lake in the Japan. The rugged solo mountain meal in the silence without wind is lively in this special seat, making it the most luxurious cherry blossom viewing.

Shining Snow Monster It was the first time I had photographed an ice tree that had grown so much. I took this photo in conjunction with the glow of the sun. Location: Nagano

From Kurumayama to Washigamine, the Kirigamine Plateau continues with gentle undulations. Seasonal alpine plants such as Astragalus azalea, Nikko kisuge, and Matsumushiso dye the green meadow in various colors. Mt. Fuji, the Alps, the Yatsugatake mountain range, and other famous peaks that Japan are proud of are also overlooked. Kirigamine Plateau is also known as the birthplace of Japan gliders because of its abundant updrafts in the area, making it suitable for glider flight. Cited from Kirigamine Kogen tourism website.

Wow this is beautiful. If there's one thing I'm going to miss come spring it's going to be all of the beautiful winter photography that I've had the pleasure of seeing this year. That being said I'm sure spring will be just as beautiful thanks to all the greenery and cherry blossoms coming to life. This photo is really cool though. Before I zoomed in it looked like some historical castle townscape covered in snow but then upon closer inspection it's a modern area with modern homes. The river is cool too, it reminds me of a moat separating a castle from its town at this angle and probably because of the cobblestone. The mountain backdrop is really amazing too, I suppose that's maybe where the mine cart runs to? Guess I'll have to visit Asago to find out!

"Ice Trees and the Rising Sun" I was about to give up due to the ridiculously strong wind and the cold cloudiness, Somehow, it cleared up at sunrise and the view changed to a superb view at once. I am very satisfied to be able to photograph the ice trees that can only be seen in winter. Location: Nagano

"Yatsugatake and the Milky Way in Winter" The perfect cloudless Milky Way day came, I photographed the Milky Way along with Yatsugatake at my favorite shooting point. It was the best with a starry sky! I used a soft filter to capture a large image of the stars. It is a sticking point. Location: Nagano

A bronze statue in Asago City, Hyogo Prefecture, at Himemiya Shrine. Does the snow-covered figure look like a girl celebrating her coming-of-age ceremony? It was so cute that I involuntarily released the shutter.

In Gifu City, it rarely snows every year, and this year it rained, so I went to a nearby shrine to take pictures before work.
