Even in Yamaguchi Prefecture, the fireworks here in Aburatani can be seen from very close up and are fantastic!

Huge fireworks and laser beams, silhouettes of people floating in the beautiful light in the night sky. The contrast between the two enhances the sense of realism and creates a fantastic screen.

Parents and children playing in the water at Nanae Falls! A father jumps from the top of the waterfall to a child who can't jump easily! The mother snapped a picture of it with her cell phone! What a smiling family! It reminded me of my childhood.

A delightful work that captures the memories of summer with exquisite timing. It is also good to introduce the fact that Nagato City is blessed with nature of mountains and rivers as well as the sea.

This photo was taken of a ship anchored in Aburaya Bay due to an approaching typhoon.
Review by Nobuo Shimose, Juror
The color of the sea is so clear and beautiful that it is hard to believe it was before the typhoon. The shape of the ship should be a little more sideways. Photocon flyer table 2015 Nagato City Tourism Photo Contest - Nagato Original Scenery The "Nagato Original Scenery" contest is open to any theme that best conveys the charm of Nagato City as a tourist destination (Nagato, a city that plays on the Japanese spirit of "Kindness"), including natural scenery, traditional culture, events, food, and more.
