Encountering fresh scenes on your travels and comforting views you see every day, landscape photography lets you feel the history and culture nurtured there. Closely tied to personal memories, it captivates people's attention, showing different expressions through the lens each time. This series highlights works that explore such potential-rich landscapes.
Last time, we focused on Japan's northernmost region, Hokkaido, and this time, we continue to introduce the vast land of Hokkaido. With more submissions than other cities, there are still plenty of inspirational photography spots to share with you.
The Colors of the Seasons Woven by Nature #nature
Hokkaido is characterized by its cold climate and rich nature. With clear distinctions between the four seasons, each season offers unique charm.
From the vibrant purple lavender blooming in summer to the winter landscape where snow blankets everything in white, it's a place that feels fresh no matter how many times you visit.
Leisurely Time at the Farm #farm
Farms offer encounters with nature, beautiful landscapes, and adorable animals. Feel the beauty of life while taking photos in a relaxed atmosphere.
If you get a bit tired from shooting, a sweet treat might be a good choice. The farm's soft serve ice cream is a sure pick. Be sure to snap a photo before you eat.
Landscapes Emerging with Sunset #sunset
In Hokkaido, blessed with vast lands, you can witness scenes like sunsets and the universe spreading across an unobstructed sky.
Point your lens to the sky and capture the sun sinking into the earth or the eternal stars. It might make everyday worries seem small and lighten your mood a bit.
