"I can't stop firmly without seeing the scenery."

Comments by Professor Mitsuhashi of Yokohama Art University
You've found this place well. The light of Minato Mirai, the light at the intersection, the traffic light, and the tail lamp of the motorcycle creates a story. It's like the beginning of something, or the last scene of a movie. An end roll is likely to flow after the drama. It's fantastic and very impressive.

Silver Prize

"Pashari at 6:45 (Mujiko) in hope of no accidents."

Comments by Professor Mitsuhashi of Yokohama Art University
KAWASAKI's famous car collaborates with Cosmo World Cosmo Clock 21 (ferris wheel) and diving coasters. KAWASAKI lovers seem to have Z and W schools, but the characteristic spokes and disc brakes are the appeal of this bike. It looks like a car standing in the refreshing sky and the amusement park.

Silver Prize

"I always wear the chest protector, duly."

Comments by Professor Mitsuhashi of Yokohama Art University
In the Yokohama Port Symbol Tower and the blue sky, clouds will help the production dramaticly, and the sound of the engine can be heard. It seems that I went touring on a very pleasant day. The angle from the low position of squatting (low angle) complements the tower and the motorcycle.

Bronze Prize

"Beware of slip!"

Comments by Professor Mitsuhashi of Yokohama Art University
I guess there was a puddle by chance, but sometimes I water the ground on purpose when shooting advertisements and promotions. It also has the effect of suppressing reflection and halation, but in this photo, the blue sky, clouds, and silhouette reflected on the surface of the water are composed of exquisite compositions on the vertical screen, making it a truly effective production.

Bronze Prize

"When driving, drive while paying attention to the movement of the surrounding cars and motorcycles."

Comments by Professor Mitsuhashi of Yokohama Art University
HONDA's CT110 has a history of cubs and CT50. It has completely changed, and now it seems that it is often used by young people for touring and camping. It is the privilege of riding a motorcycle to see a fluffy sight, stop your bike and want to watch the sunset with your car. It's a wonderful time with my partner.

Bronze Prize

"Strictly prohibited! Surprisingly, it is a blind spot from the car! Be safe today!"

Comments by Professor Mitsuhashi of Yokohama Art University
Ookagawa is one of the places where you want to walk along the river throughout the four seasons. The cherry blossom season is also a special time, but when the cherry blossoms begin to fall a little, it's hard to ride a motorcycle. The road surface overlaps with the body color and the met color, giving it a well-balanced composition.
