田んぼ 日没 花

Took these shots on the way home from the Kayama Station (栢山駅).
It was a nice and cool evening!

Mt. Fuji

We were very lucky today! For the first time in a long time, the clouds finally cleared up and I got a great view of Mt. Fuji. I wish I had a DSLR at the time, but had to make do with just an iPhone.

花 田んぼ 木 ポスト

Today's walk in the neighborhood consisted of a lot of colors, contrast, and lots of fresh air. One thing about the Pentax K-50 is the slight over saturation of reds. I wonder if this is true for other cameras as well.


Possibly a lilac (?)

Mt. Fuji Samukawa River

I went for a walk to Sakawa River. The route from home took me through some rice paddies where upon I was able to see the peak of Mt. Fuji. Usually, it is too cloudy to even see past the Hakone mountains, but I was very lucky today.

The water at the river was crystal clear. I was even able to see some fish. After living in the Tokyo suburbs for so long, it is quite refreshing to see what appears to be very clean water!

近所の花

Took a few shots of some somewhat colorful flowers in the neighborhood.
Most of these flowers are growing like weeds along the rivers or canals.

If anyone knows the names of these flowers in English or Japanese, I would love to know!
