硫黄山、ごつごつとした岩の上を歩くのは大変ですよね。池を回るコースがあって良かったです！どの池の水も澄んで美しいですが、特に六観音御池が素晴らしい。山藤も素晴らしいです！
ReplyDelete良い一日をお過ごしください。
Dear Tomoko sama.
Deleteこんばんは。ありがとうございます。硫黄山から出る硫黄で秋にススキがえび色に変わるので、えびの高原と言われたそうです。
山藤、自然のままでのびのびしていました。

Minoru, These scenes look like they could be in CO! We only have Gentians blooming here in late summer or fall, when the weather is getting very cool. I love the violet photo and the ponds are so tranquil.

Pretty scenery!
ReplyDeleteDear Fiona.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.
The scenery is very beautiful and relaxing with so many exotic flowers which are new to me. I like that azalea!
ReplyDeleteI think those are all lakes as ponds are usually smaller.
Dear Twilight Man.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment. I think so ,but each lake has the original name of Ike. Ike means pond in Japanese. Ike is 池、The meanings of the lake and pond are a little bit different in each country.
A wonderful region to have a walk travel and to observe these aspects of nature so lovely captured in photo instants! It must have been 2 and half hours of trip seeing gorgeous places with blue waters at the ponds. The red pines are majestic, the blooms are gorgeous...
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for sharing them with us! A lovely weekend!
Dear Alexa.
DeleteThank you very much for your comment.The sky was very clear and cool. It was nice travel for us.
えびの高原は高校の修学旅行で行ったきり。池や湖は神秘的な色ですね。ミツバツツジは地名つきのいろいろな種があるようですね。
ReplyDeleteDear Yoko sama.
Deleteこんばんは。私もえびの高原は初めて行きました。２日目は大雨でしたので指宿から霧島温泉に直行しました。もう一度南鹿児島へ戻るのも無粋なので、ここを散策する事にしました。この土地の植物にも会えてよかったです。
Hello Minoru, The ponds are beautiful. I think they were worth the difficult climb. I love all the flowers as well.
