"Summer Clouds on Fire"
In the summer evening, looking up at the sky, the large, developed clouds were illuminated by the setting sun, turning into a fiery color.
The clouds rose powerfully as if they had stored the heat of the day, contrasting with the gradually darkening sky.
It was a brief display, a drama of the summer evening sky.

After the Guerrilla Thunderstorm
This summer has seen many guerrilla thunderstorms.
This happened when I visited Mamada Hachimangu Shrine for the wind chime festival, and after a guerrilla thunderstorm passed, I noticed a brief moment of sunshine with droplets on the tanzaku (wishing strips), prompting me to take a photo.
After the intense guerrilla thunderstorm enveloped the shrine, light briefly shone through the clouds. It was a moment when the wind chimes, adorned with raindrops, quietly conveyed the changes in the summer sky.

"The whole school assembly will begin!"
A sunflower field instead of the summer schoolyard.
Many sunflowers were facing the same direction, beautifully lined up.
Some children were looking straight ahead, some were slightly turned, and some were still small.
As I watched, their figures blended with those of the students lining up for the assembly.
"Now, let's start the whole school assembly!"

"Summer Wishes"
Captured at the Wind Chime Festival at Hotokuji Temple in Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture.
I encountered a gentle-faced Jizo statue at the festival.
Surrounded by colorful wind chimes, a small strip of paper swayed nearby with the wish, "May the whole family be healthy and happy."
The refreshing sound of the wind chimes carries the wishes for the family.
I captured a tranquil moment that embodies the essence of a Japanese summer.

The autumn leaves at Konzoin Temple in Sano City, Tochigi Prefecture, are stunning. When the maple trees along the approach turn bright red, it's truly magnificent. However, perhaps due to global warming, everything doesn't turn completely red anymore.
Still, the maple tree next to the bell tower turns bright red, and I love seeing it basking in the morning sun.

In the flower fields of Agrostemma, the beautiful scenery of Mt. Nantai and Mt. Nyohou can be seen.
The Agrostemma fields belong to a local farmer, and we are truly grateful.
The sight of the Agrostemma swaying in the wind is a hidden gem that offers a refreshing summer atmosphere.
The mountains in the background are the Nikkō Mountains, where you can capture stunning photos of beautiful peaks like Mt. Nantai and Mt. Nyohou.

At the Akagi Kogen Service Area on the downbound side of the Kanetsu Expressway, there is a park behind the shops. In spring, there are spots where tulips and other flowers are planted.
On clear days, you can see the snow-capped Mt. Komagatake and Mt. Hotaka.
While walking in the park, I spotted the snow-covered Mt. Komagatake between the red and white cherry blossoms.
