Wooden Bridge

This bridge is the only one wooden bridge over ebigawa ( ebi-river ).
I have already introduced you this bridge ( Takasho-bridge ), when cherry blossoms were in bloom.

I took this photo after rain.
I like the bridge which is wet with rain.

Ducks by the River

I like walking along the river.
So I often go to there.

I found that those ducks are always together.
And they are usually in same place.

Please check my article, Ducks in the river .

River after Rain

We have light rain in this morning.
After rain, I walked along the river.
I like those wet green leaves.
From today, I will show you what I saw by the river.

Taxi Terminal

This is a taxi terminal in front of funabashi railway station.
Many taxi are waiting for passenger.
We are in serious depression now.

Street in Evening

I took this photo on the north side pedestrian deck of funabashi station.
All buses which departure from north side of the station, go through this street.
In early evening, many buses run on the street.

Small Shinto Shrine in the Light Rain

It drizzled today.
I went to neighboring small shinto shrine to take photo.
I took these photos under tree.
This place is a same place where I took a photo of Guardian dog in last week.

Funabashi Station in the Evening

I took this photo last Monday.
It was a view from a pedestrian deck which is on the south side of the station.
You can see concourse of the station below the platform.
And those people on that escalator, are going to change train line.

Path in the Woods

I took this photo on last Sunday.
I often go to this woods.
It is on a hill in my town.
But many people who live in the town don't know the narrow path in the woods.

Guardian Dog

I took this photo in a neighboring shinto shrine.
Many trees grow in precincts of the shrine, and the place is usually very calm.
I like this guardian dog covered with moss.

Shin-ebigawabashi

Shin-ebigawabashi (shin-ebigawa-bridge) is a bridge which is over ebi-river.
There are funny objects on railings of the bridge.
Those objects are dancers with funny masks, and children marching band.

That place is not so far from funabashi station, but atmosphere of old town still remains about there.

I often take a walk along the river.

That river flow to Tokyo bay.

Pigeons by the River

I took this photo by ebi-river at central funabashi.
This place is close to ebigawa-bridge.
They were talking under green leaves.

Field

The other day, I took a walk from my home, and found this field.
When I saw this scenery, I felt I was far frome funabashi.
But actually, It took around 20 minutes from my home to there

It was rain, but I went out to take photos in the rain.
And I found these colourful azalea.
In the rain, these flower looked very beautiful.

What colour of azalea do you like.

Woods in Spring

I took this photo in the woods near my home yesterday.
In winter, those trees were naked.
but the woods are covered with green leaves now.

Azalea by the Path

I took these photos in my town today.
In this season, I often stop to watch this flower.
We call this flower "Tsutsuji" in Japan.

You can see cherry trees along the path in the first photo.
Those fresh green leaves make this flower more beautiful.

Azalea is my favorite flower in spring.

Nostalgic Sign

This is a sign of shoes shop.
I found this old sign on a back street in central funabashi.
It is very simple and style of letters is old.
But it is tasty for me.
That shop has already closed.
Simple words and name are painted on the board.
"special shop for men and women's shoes; new make and repair"

The park is rich in fresh green colour in this time.
