A Little Friend

A time to get relaxed in the midst of a busy day. Lately, this little fellow has been in the corner of the deck waiting for me to come outside. When it’s warm in the afternoon, I like spending my time sitting on the deck reading books or just watching birds pecking on the grass. […]

Happy Halloween!

Halloween eyeball monsters. They are cream puff with custard cream and whipped cream. Who wants to come for a trick-or-treat?

Pumpkin Stand

An unattended pumpkin stand I saw in Kings County. The pumpkins were divided into large, medium, and small sizes, and the prices were written on them. There was a tin can next to the pumpkins, so I put in the money for the pumpkins I received. It is very interesting that pumpkins are not only […]

Kayaking in the morning mist

Kayaking in the morning mist. Sunrise is at 7:30 am. There was no wind. We paddled out before sunrise and the morning sun appeared as if it guided us.

Graceful Days – Burgundy Dream video

In the beautifully garden, many birds are gathering. They are spinning around and around, making their chirping noises. The music is “The Little Birds’ Ball” from Petit Ballet Suite “Graceful Days” written by Kengo Tozawa. I made my first multiple recording of a flute quartet. I recorded them separately and asked my friend to combine […]

Enchanted Forest

Very early in the morning just before the sun comes out, you go into the forest in our backyard, close your eyes and listen carefully. You will hear a sound of awakening the forest. You may not see it, but you can hear it. A sound of his footsteps on falling leaves. A Tiny elf […]
