Patience fireworks

I went to big exhibition of Nagatoro's fireworks with the both ladies as usual bodyguard yesterday.
We arrived at the site 3:00 pm, in spite of 7:30 pm start of the event.
Because we have to the best position for taking photos.

These blue sheets were laid by someone to keep vest position at around 6:00 am.

This is another event before beginning the main event the fireworks at 4:00 pm..

We have to wait more 3 Horus for the big main event.

This sky is at around 5:00 pm.

This sky is at 6:00 pm.

After one & half hour, the event starting!

This is the last firework which named Niagara Falls.

The event finished at 9:00 pm, we got back our house at 0:30 am today.

It was a slow day with patient effort for me.

An injured sparrow, a strange insect and our harvest

We had a sad story in the morning.

AyeYai found out an injured sparrow at narrow backyard.

He/she could not eat anything.
It seems he/she can not get off.

She wrapped it softly and moved it to safety place.

But we found out died sparrow after minutes in front of the door.

I don't know a name of this insect who is eating spoiled fig hungrily.


These are today's harvest.

These are yesterday's harvest.

Downtown oasis in Tokyo

We were in Tokyo yesterday.
This picture's location is KOISHIKAWA KORAKUEN

The garden is in the middle of Tokyo.

Of course we visited here for taking pictures.

There is a rice paddy for elementary school students in just down the way.

It's a part of educational environment for the students.

They can plant rice and do rice reaping at the here.

I was in Tokyo for four years as a university student forty years ago.

But I did not know the garden. I know the place recently.

It's really downtown oasis.

Photography event and Hula Dance

I went to Hruna lake with the women of photographers as bodyguard.

This place is the first photograph event.
I was reading a book and looking at Mt. Haruna Fuji front of mine while the ladies take pictures. I enjoyed reading for half and two hours at the place.

There were a kind of moss and pretty flower by my under foot.

There were many football boys in a ground which was second place.

Hula at Ikaho hot springs was third place.

This was last place for the event.

What are you shooting?

We had a good day again!

Lonely lizard

There are lot of lizards in our garden.

I found out a lizard in this plastic bucket yesterday morning.
It seems that this lizard like to be lonely.

How was you in there?
You are a cageling exactly.

I released it after taking these pictures.
Good luck!
