Autumn color

Typhoon came and most of the leaves fell without turning to bright autumn color 

But still there are colors everywhere and many people go out to see it under the rain

Various colors and smell of autumn rose my curiosity and led me inside forest  

After typhoon No.27 couple was walking to see the trees

This year, we have many typhoons.
Because of the typhoon temperature is little bit high and color of the leaves are little bit dull

Maple tree

Sakura tree
Pond is full of water and water is coming out to adjust the water level 

Water dropping
This small leaf caught my eye 

Endless work
The house owner was trying to clean the leaves but they came one after another 

Sun set
Just before the typhoon we could see sun for several days 

.

.

Spot light
Day is getting shorter and shorter and this tree got final light from the sun 

Color competition
Under a tree seems little bit warmer than other places because of the layer of colors

Tangle
I don't know how plants feel when other plants got tangle and cannot move

Eaten
This leaf was half eaten.
It looks bit hard but I can understand the feeling of the insect that want have one bite of it 

Triple mushroom
When I have a close look into forest, I can find more and more things

Open area that can display autumn

Color combination
Just sticks and leaves but I like this fine color combination and its display

Mushrooms
Visibly soft and delicate mushrooms hiding between wood

Snail
Snail was happy under the rain but I am worry if it becomes too cold for him soon

Entrance of autumn

Autumn has began

Farmers are busy harvesting rice, peers and apples 

people wake up early to pick up walnut, chestnut and mushrooms

One evening near my house
The pond reflected the sky really well

Apple orchard 

It's  hard to take a photo of apple
maybe becz I have read some books "how to take care fruit tree",
photos tend to end up like a sample photos

Sunset 

Many apples were dropped down
I wanted to have some

A man was burning fallen leaves 

It often rains
Ajisai was on the process of loosing its color

Mikoda market
I went to a morning market to hunt some cheap apples for jam
The market opens from 4 o'clock for 300 days a year

Higanbana
This red flower brooms in higan season, when ancestors come back to this world
Since Morioka is cold Higan bana brooms little bit late

Fish seller
Market was quite busy even it opens most of the day

Way of dressing up
I saw many ole people in the market
and they were dressed up in their own way to bear the cold

In front of sweets shop 

Sweet potato seller and a woman 

Acupuncture therapy
Since there are many old people, such a doctor was working from the morning

















 

Hisai

Tohoku earthquake happened in march, 2011 

and many villages along with the coast was washed away by Tsunami 

Two and half years have passed and I had a chance to visit hisai area with my father

I will put some images that I saw

After
There were many bulldozers that working to take out rubble

We visited one of the nursery school that built by Taiwan donation
24 kids welcomed us
They sang songs and showed us their local dance

Skin ship

Coma close
They were running and played kittenish

New toilet and strong boy 

View of affected area from thumbs

On the way back









Many people have their own image toward the disaster
One thing that I learned from the disaster was




We should avoid the possibility of adversity as much as we can
