ReplyDeleteLooks very cold, though. ;)
Dear lina.

Wow! is right ~ what a journey ~ excellent photography ~ ^_^
ReplyDeleteDear Carol.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
Awesome serie of photos!
ReplyDeleteDear HansHB.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
Quite a contrast from your last post! It looks like fun to be on board an ice breaker.
ReplyDeleteDear Pat.
DeleteThank you. I was a little bit tired,because it took a few hours to go there.
I can only repeat earlier comments: Wow! Awesome! Cold!
ReplyDeleteI think, all in all, I prefer the temperatures in the high 30s that I enjoyed in sunny South Africa! ;)
Hi! It was not so cold in Hokkaido. Because there were almost no strong winds in East Hokkaido.

ReplyDeleteオーロラ号、ガリンコ号にジェット機とは盛りだくさんのコースですね。自己手配でこれだけ行動的に廻るのは難しいと思いますが、さすがツアーです。黒くて大きな鹿は、角も立派だし奈良公園の鹿と比べると、まるで違いますね。さすが野生の迫力を感じさせます。いい写真ばかりですが、オーロラ号の船首から撮った、流氷やオオワシに1票です。

Deleteこんばんは。3日間とも流氷を見られる事は稀なそうです。幸運を使い果たしたかも知れません。
ご指摘の写真は流氷に留っているオオワシも撮ったのですがあまりよく無いので飛び立つ所をアップロードしました。オオワシに焦点を合わせましたが遠いので、それなりに写りました。
ハイキーの写真はヒストグラムが役立ちました。
Interesting series of shots... being on the ice-breaker must have been thrilling... Thank you for sharing on Weekly Top Shot #71!

ReplyDeleteDear Cathy H.

Brrrrr, Minoru!!
ReplyDeleteLooks almost as cold as it's been here. :-)
What a great adventure this must have been.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful photographs here.

Dear Lisa.
DeleteThank you. When I was in Hokkaido,there were almost no winds so it was not so cold for me.
I wisg you have a nice week ahead.
How beautiful - what lovely shots!
ReplyDeleteDear Lady Fi.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
This is part of the world I have wanted to visit for a number of years - one day perhaps I get there!
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne
Dear Stewart M.
DeleteThank you. It is said this drift ice will not come to Japan in ten years,because of global warming.
I advice you to come to Hokkaido as soon as possible if you can.
なんと雄大な景色なのでしょう!!日本であるのが不思議なくらいです。
ReplyDelete国土は小さいけれど北から南に、本当にさまざまなバラエティーに富んだ国であることを実感しました。とても美しいお写真です!

Dear snowwhite.
Deleteおはようございます。いよいよ行く所が無くなって来まして、こんな所も行きました。
晴天に恵まれて流氷も見る事が出来てラッキーでした。
Great tour!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
ReplyDeleteDear Gary.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
I am seeing this for the first time! Looks wonderful. To be on a boat with all the ice around you must be a nice feeling. Loved the airplane shots too.
ReplyDeleteHave a good week ahead Minoru :)
Dear Arti.
DeleteThank you. I feel happy you like my photos.

Hi Minoru!
ReplyDeleteThe photos are pretty but it must have been so cold! I especially love the one you took from your hotel room, it's a fabulous shot of the harbor.
Stay warm. I hope spring comes soon for you.
Dear geetlee.
DeleteThank you. It was no so cold,because there were almost no winds when we were there.
Wishing you a wonderful day.
That was an interesting series of photos. I've never seen drift ice before, it must have been an amazing trip!
ReplyDeleteDear Karen.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
Minoru, I'm so sorry I missed Japan in my list of places I have WCW visiting from ... you have been a faithful follower for a while now and I just love your pictures of a place I'm not sure I'll ever be able to visit. I love your deer picture and the ice flows are spectacular. Thanks so much for joining Walk and Click Wednesdays!!
ReplyDeleteDear Lissa.
DeleteThank you. I feel happy you like my photos.
行ってみたいですが、お写真を拝見しただけで、ブルっときました。昔はスキーなんかも行ったものですが。
ReplyDelete海が真っ白になって流氷の音だけが聞こえるのでしょうか。異次元の世界なんでしょうね。Thank you for sharing!
Dear Sarah.
Deleteこんばんは。私も子供を連れてニセコによくスキーに行きました。雄大さと雪質の良さに感激しました。
今回はとても寒いと予想していましたが、風がほとんど無く、割と暖かでした。
流氷の音は聞こえませんでしたが、初めて見た時は感動しました。
Wow! Neat pictures. I love seeing that wild deer.
ReplyDeleteDear Creating Through.
