When driving, people's gaze naturally shifts to the outside scenery. The sunlight pouring through the gaps in the clouds onto the earth. This precious shot captures a miraculous landscape visible only when luck aligns.

“Morning View from Takeda Castle Ruins”
cizucu Editorial Team
The clouds spread out like an ocean, the mountain surface visible through the gaps, the sun announcing the start of a new day, and the people gathered to witness it all. This shot captures a new face of the sky that can only be seen by visiting the Takeda Castle Ruins.

This piece expresses the fleeting beauty and emotion of nature. The clouds are thin and there are no buildings around. It is a work that sparks imagination about where and at what angle it was taken.

“The Sky is Connected”

This piece captures a dreamlike scene with the sunset illuminating the sea and the starry sky in contrast. The title 'The Sky is Connected' and the two figures gazing into the distance evoke emotions, making one think of friends striving far away. This work, which beautifully expresses the contest theme, was selected as an award-winning piece.
Conclusion
How was it? All the works captured the infinite expressions of the endlessly vast sky, yet we all share one sky. This contest allowed us to deepen our admiration and awe for nature while rediscovering the fun of capturing one's unique perspective through photography. We plan to hold various contests themed around nature in the future. Please look forward to the next one!
LOVE OUR PLANET!
