Jyugatsuzakura

I took these photos by Ebigawa(ebi-river) on last Wednesday.
Jyugatsuzakura is a cherry that blooms twice in a year.
It will bloom again in spring.

Nishikigi (winged spindle tree)

I took these photos in a neighboring woods today.
Nishikigi is a deciduous shrub.
Leaves of it have already started turning to red.


We can recognize the plant easily beacuse it has wings on it's branches.


I will show you the tree again when colour of those leaves change to beautiful red.

Lanterns in a Small Shinto Shrine

I took these photos in my neighborhood today.
I think those lanterns are for an annual event of the shrine.
I like those soft lights.
