Enjoyed mid-winter take photograph in Nagano Prefecture !

The weather forecast said heavy snowfall due to a cold wave, so I went with my friends to take photos of Nagano Prefecture in the height of midwinter.
The temperature on the Kirigamine Plateau(霧ヶ峰) was not as cold as expected, and there was no fog ice in the larch forests, making it difficult to capture the morning glow on photo film.
We also went to Togakushi Shrine to photograph the famous cedar trees along the approach to Rear Shrine(奥社). As it is winter, the picture is not flashy, but I think even the stillness has been captured in the photograph.
To warm up our cold bodies we went to our usual hot springs at Maguse(馬曲温泉). As photography is not allowed in the baths, the image of the open-air baths is a public domain image from Wikipedia.
Each of the shooting locations was cold, but I enjoyed the snowy landscape.

Chapter List:
00:00 Kirigamine Plateau (霧ヶ峰)
03:32 Togakushi Shrine, approach to Rear Shrine (戸隠神社奥社参道)
08:23 Maguse Onsen (馬曲温泉)

  1. 霧ヶ峰の朝はマイナス16度とはスゲー寒い🥶でしょうね、手の冷えの対策が必要ですね、富士山の後方オレンジ色の朝焼けが綺麗だ
    樹氷とススキ草原のコントラストが高い風景、足音がキュキュっと気温の低さを感じます
    戸隠参道杉並木、厳かな神の道
    心が洗われる
    太い杉の大木が連なる迫力の参道を思います。
    4×5撮影の様子を見て誰か4x 5ファンになってフィルムをたくさん買ってくれればフィルム価格も元通りの価格に!戻ってほしい
    かつてのポジフィルムの再来を願う
    馬曲温泉はお湯も綺麗、景色も綺麗

  2. 朝焼けのオレンジ色が美しい!
    雪の奥社参道なんて行かんでもいいでしょ。ま、温泉は必須ですね♨️
