Japanese Traditional Rite of Passage For Kids
Hello everyone!
Do you know Shichi-Go-San ( 七五三, seven-five-three ), a traditional rite of passage and festival day in Japan?
We celebrate the growth and well-being of our children, when the boy being 3 or 5 years, and girls being 3 or 7 years.
Usually we worship the Shinto shrine on the rearest weekend of November 15th.
Last year we celebrate our son for being 5 years, and this year our daughter for being 3 years.

Before worship, we usually wash and purify our hands and mouths wit
My pic is used in the official poster of Nagasaki!
In this summer some designer made contact with me about the night shot of Nagasaki Port shot by me.
He was going to participate the competition by Nagasaki City, the poster for Nagasaki Lantern Festival 2014.
He found my night shot on my blog, and asked me to use it for the poster.
I accepted the offer with pleasure and cooperated with him.
In early September I was contacted by him again and he said his work won the competition and accepted as the official poster design of Lantern Festival 2014!!
The photo shot by me, used by him is below.
And, the poster by him is below.
The poster will be put on the bulletin boards in all over Japan,
Shimabara Hina Dolls Fes and My new hobby
Hi! :D
So sorry for my long absence, I'm still alive and quite good, working hard and keeping to take photos when I have enough time.
I've not updated my journal for a long time, and today I wanna show you some pics of mine shot in Shimabara Hina Dolls Fes and in my house.
Shimabara is located in the east of Nagasaki Pref, and it's a very beautiful city.
The canal made by spring water around the city, and Shimabara castle, Fugen-dake http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Unzen etc are very famous in Japan.
As usual, by clicking each pics you can see large sized pics ;)

Hello everyone! :)
Recently I'm much busier than the past, with my real work, and the care for my son and daughter :D

How is your new year? Everything is good?
I'm beginning to feel the stress of that I don't have my free time, but Lady luck smiled on me last friday.
There was a telephone call for me at night, and the number was unfamiliar.
That was from the web shop that I bought my new PC in last December.
Then the person in charge of the shop said to me,
"You entered our prize contest when you bought the PC, and this time you won the first prize
