Awesome photo. I've heard of Soma-Nomaoi before. I really want to check it out actually and see all the horse races and stuff. I guess they do drills that were used by the military back in the day which would be really cool to watch as well. I'm a huge fan of horseback archery and archery in general so if they have that that'd be awesome as well. I didn't know there were portable shrines as well. I'd have to read up more on the festival but it definitely looks interesting. I have a friend over in Fukushima Prefecture so if I could get out there and meet them when this is happening it'd be awesome. Hopefully corona has settled down by July, but if not then I guess there's always next year. I'll have to eat some tasty festival food somewhere else I guess 😂

Soma Nomaoi held in July in the Soma region of Fukushima Prefecture.
There is the courage of the mounted warrior and the quietness of the sacred ritual.

I love the reflection the bridge and surrounding treeline makes on the surface of the river in this photo. Really beautiful stuff. I'd like to visit Aizu-Wakamatsu because I've heard that Aizu-Wakamatsu Castle is awesome and also the local sake in the area is supposed to be really good as well. I'm not too familiar with the area but I know Aizu-Wakamatsu is surrounded by mountains and that Mt. Bandai is over there. Maybe that's it in the background? I'm not too sure, but whatever the case may be it's a really breathtaking photo. Japan's snowscapes really are a gift that keeps on giving. Especially this year there's a ton of beautiful landscapes like this and getting to see them posted everywhere is really great. Everyone has such amazing photos it makes me want to try my hand at photography 😂. Maybe someday, we'll see lol

Tadami line and snowy landscape.
The first bridge and the train were reflected on the Tadami River, creating a very fantastic scenery.

Long day out today. Figured I'd check everyone's posts before bed and wow! I'd not heard of Mt. Yoshino, although I can see why Toyotomi Hideyoshi would have loved it. The scenery is truly beautiful here. I can't even imagine how beautiful the cherry blossoms must be if they're even more amazing than the snowy landscape in this photo. I suppose Kinpusenji Temple is the large building just to the right of the center of the photo. I'd love to give it a visit. It's Nara too, so hopefully I can see some deer during my visit. If not then I'll just have to stop by the park to watch people being chased for their crackers😂 Lovely place though, I'm interested in seeing what it looks like in Autumn as well. Japan never ceases to amaze me with it's colorful foliage so I can imagine Mt. Yoshino is no exception either!

Mount Yoshino is said to have been loved by Hideyoshi Ōko.
Mt. Yoshino is famous for its cherry blossoms, but the snowy scenery is also exceptional.
This scenery can be seen several times a year.
The snowy scenery dyed in white silver and the presence of Kinpusanji Temple are irresistible.

北海道札幌市、とあるショッピングモールの駐輪場にて。 北海道においてソリが小さな子どもの移動手段になることは珍しくありませんが、自転車のない真冬の駐輪場にふたつ並ぶ鮮やかな色のソリがなんとも可愛らしく、撮影しました。 帰り道、このソリに楽しそうな小さな子どもと、買い込んだ荷物を乗せて家まで引いて帰る親御さんの姿が想像できます。

This photo captures the essence of Kyoto so well in my opinion. Cherry blossoms and a yakatabune. It's so simple and yet so elegant at the same time. I like how the boat is just slightly obscured by the cherry blossoms and you can feel how the wood on the roof of the boat has aged just by looking at it. Kyoto has so many beautiful sights to see and experiences to try. I'm looking forward to one of these boat rides the next time I go, and I'm also planning on visiting a kawadoko because I've eaten by a river before so I know how refreshing it is, but I've never eaten OVER a river before inside a boat maybe but this is different so I'm looking forward to a new experience. Going to have to visit all the temples and shrines I didn't have the chance to visit before as well.

Cherry blossoms in Fushimi, Kyoto.
The morning sun shone into the cherry blossoms that bloomed like wearing a parked ten-stone boat.
