Mr. Hideo Mori

The morning sun dyes the clouds golden, and captures the exquisite balance that overlaps with the morning fog on the river surface. It is a beautiful work that includes color and composition.

"Snow Morning" Photographer: Mr. Yoshitaka Iwane

Photographer Comments

The snow that had fallen the day before stopped, and it was clear from the morning. Around 7:30, I went to Kamoike Ohashi to shoot, and photographed the snowy scenery downstream of Tsurumi River from Ohashi. Kamoike Humanitarian Bridge was crowded with passers-by at the time of commuting, and the Tsurumi River and the trees on the riverbed were beautiful shining in the morning sun.

 The shining morning sun tells the beginning of a winter day. It seems that the breath and footsteps of the people heading to the station quickly could be heard from a distance.

The sunset was reflected in the paddy field that had just been planted, and I was able to shoot just where the Yokohama Line passed on the way home from shopping.

Photographing location

Comments by Mr. Hideo Mori

 In the paddy field where rice planting has just been completed, a gentle shade is reflected, and the Yokohama Line runs just like two minutes. It's a scene full of nostalgia.

Comment by Toshimasa Inoue (Chairman of the Midori Ward Association of Self-Government)

Mr. Toshimasa Inoue

This is a photo showing the Yokohama Line moving in the tranquility of snow falling in a familiar place since childhood, but it seems that you can hear the sound of a train that makes you feel vitality.

One point of "Midori Ward Mayor's Award" (Supplementary prize: certificate of merit, book card 3,000 yen, souvenir)

"I'm in the middle of raising children."

Sea of clouds in Midori Ward
"In the middle of raising children" Photographer: Rakuchin-san

Photographer Comments

Child care in the heat of summer. A kingfisher parent who flies around for young birds and feed them. After that, I swallowed it. Sometimes I use it for myself and build my physical strength. I'm looking forward to it every year. I want to support you with your parents and children!

Nobuo Okada

In the intense heat, the parent kingfisher at the moment when I got the food for raising children is fun. Midori Ward is rich in nature that is easy for living creatures to raise children. In addition, we aim at "town which we raised child" in Yokohama-shi.
