Today, I went to a traffic safety course with the police in Kamaishi to renew my Japanese car license. It's about 50 kilometers away from my town.

kj30DThis is the night cherry blossom taken with PowerShotS110 on April 11, 2023. This is the only place where you can see the cherry blossoms at night without any special lighting in your area. Moreover, there is a tall building on the left side of the angle of the photo, and if the second floor is not used, it will not be like this. At this year, I was vaguely thinking that I wanted to shoot cherry blossoms at night. There were no big lighting fixtures like those used by TV crews, only flashlights, and I was quite lucky to be able to take pictures of cherry blossoms that night. I found out in the spring of 2024😅

kj30DNow I know that I had doubts after filming cherry blossoms for quite a few years. When the cherry blossoms are planted in cold weather, the center of the flowers and the whole flowers turn red. I imagined for the first time this year that it would turn red because it was warm.
"Whether or not cherry blossoms turn red depends on the species and environmental conditions. Generally, cherry blossoms turn pink due to a pigment called anthocyanin. This anthocyanin has the property of being difficult to break down when temperatures are low, but is easily broken down when temperatures are high. Therefore, if the temperature is high when the cherry blossoms bloom, the color of the cherry blossoms tends to fade."

kj30DYesterday, I took pictures of three cherry blossoms: weeping cherry blossoms in a neighboring town, a slightly closer place to someone else's premises but a place where anyone can enter, under-ed cherry blossoms taken from a road facing outside the premises, and cherry blossoms in an auto campsite.
I think I've learned for the first time that the weeping cherry blossoms, ordinary cherry blossoms, and petals, especially the point of redness, are different! lol

kj30DWhen the pedestrian bridge was finally repaired, the scaffolding was built, and when driving a car, there was a time when I almost had a car accident in the nick of time.😱 This is clearly because they tried to break through the opponent's red light.😡 I quickly changed course in my car and barely avoided a collision.😰 It will take a little while to complete the repair of the pedestrian bridge.
I also have this nuance in Japanese, but when I try to translate it into English here, I often feel that smartphone translation does not translate subtle nuances in Japanese.

kj30DUntil a certain point, I used to watch figure skating a lot, but during the Olympics, I liked watching non-Japanese athletes, and I watched this live (not to fail, not to fail) with excitement. After this group, I skied about three groups, but I was relieved only when the score did not improve in the end.
The song used is Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 5 and the fourth movement Adaget, which is used in movies, so it is known outside the classical music world. I also felt that this decadent tune unique to Mahler (w I like songs, and I felt that the choreography matched the image of this song, so even now, many years later, my emotion does not fade. By the way, except for one part cut and pasted for figure acting, it's almost an act that uses all four movements lol.

kj30DI gradually stopped watching Japanese TV around 2011, but now it's clear on YouTube that Japanese TV is connected behind the scenes to politicians and police, so I stop watching Japanese TV more and more (watching news programs). Recently, I've been watching the BBC and euronews on apps, and then watching America's Got Talent on YouTube. The Japanese from the TV screen is losing its truth within me.
However, I feel that China and Korea are also unreliable in a different way.
Also, on YouTube, I am healed by watching my child's shooting video taken by someone's parents (Japanese TV can't do this kind of video because it adds excessive production).

kj30DYOUTUBER who has joined NHK I'm starting to understand the behind-the-scenes connection between TV, newspapers, and the entertainment industry, and after listening to it, I think I understand why I had been watching TV in the past and somehow thought this was a bit of a mystery.

kj30DDuring the year-end and New Year holidays, I went to Hatsumode to avoid crowds. I laughed at the ema written in the past. Especially the first ema is full of young men's desires, which is refreshing in a way lol. :blobfoxangrylaugh: "Do you have any older, richer, shortcut girls?"
Well, I felt like the omikuji was perfect for me right now.
