Handmade 3D Photo

3D Tokyo Tower

I take this photo and print out 2 sheets.  I cut out one of them and pasted top of base photo. My husband "This is not so 3D looks like...but it's still nice photo!" said but I think it is 3D little bit. Anyway, I really like something handmade and it was fun!!

Hydrangea

Hydrangea

I've never seen this fringing Hydrangea.  We have so many kind of Hydrangea in Japan and they are blooming right now.  I know this is not a flower, it's a calyx. I think many Japanese like to watch many kinds of Hydrangea in June and I just found this very unique one.

Landscape of countryside

Highway and Mountains

Rice field 

Yamagata and Nigata is very far from Tokyo.  It has drive more than 800km in this time of my business trip.  I visited Yamagata long time ago, probably 15 years maybe.... and I don't remember about Nigata.  Japan is not so big country but I hardly go that area.  So I really enjoyed watching landscape of rice field and mountains. I stopped 2 cities in each prefectures.  I could meet some refgees in each cities and gave my Propolise directly.  Of course I met many refgees who came for the lecture of comparison of accident of Chernobyl and Fukushima daiichithe in Nigata city.  I was healed of the countryside landscape.  This place is one of the most famous place of delicious rice.

Lecture by physician to refugees of Fukushima nuclear accident in Nigata city

I went to Yamagata and Nigata in last week to bring my propolis to refugees.  They are forced evacuation and voluntary evacuation people with baby or kids. So most of all is young mothers.  This is the lecture by physician  who is very detailed about the Chernobyl nuclear accident.  The Doctor visits every years to Belarus and do a lot of research after the accident.  They have still tough time and confuse.  They know radiation dose is getting low and many people is getting back to home in Fukushima but they are very confuse and can't decide to go back there.  Most of people separeted live with their family, parents, brother and sisters even her husband too.  They worried about radiation especially food and water...It's depend on the person but it's very clear, not easy to make a decision.

Along the railway

Romance Car with yellow flowers

Around ending of May, I found nice place to take a photo of pretty flowers and train.  This is my "Odakyu Line".  I don't have much interest in train but this place is simply nice, pretty yellow flowers besides railway.  I was waiting for a train which is white body and blue line but a new blue one came called "Romance Car".

By the way, Odakyu line is from Shinjuku,Tokyo to Odawara or Hakone, Kanagawa where is hot springs area.  Here is more information Odakyu Global Site.

Cucumbers and Bitter Melons

I planted vegetables nearly end of May but it was little bit late to do it in this year.  However my balcony is getting busy.  I try 2 cucumber in this year.  It's my first time.  Bitter Melons are making green curtain and nice shade, ofcourse I like cook them too.  I also seeded basil so buds'll come out soon.
