大鰐町 (Ōwani City)

... about 30 minutes by train from Hirosaki in south-central Aomori Prefecture. The area is known for it's agriculture, horticulture, forestry, ski resorts, and (the reason for my visit) onsen hot springs !! The 大鰐線 (Ōwani Line) railway runs from Chūō-Hir...  

Last shot is precious

They were so cute... and the train was very warm inside...

Hot spring surrounded by the snow is definitely amazing [nt]

The day I was there it was mostly local people so very relaxing

I really like the small local trains...

and the snow is definitely a plus... there is one more post from the Aomori trip... maybe on the weekend or early next week. BTW I am off to Karuizawa next week for three days... Looking forward to experience that location in winter...

I have not been to "Tazawako", Akita Prefecture...

The only ski resorts I have spent any time at were in Nagano and Hokkaido and then only to take photos... Fact is I have never been to Akita... now I have a reason to visit ; )

Very nice series.

I think the first photo stands out for all the shades of white and gray/silver. Interesting for a color shot. I like number 4-arond the city-for the same reason.

Thanks Padj...

The way I process color film tends to be with a little less saturation and contrast than digital... that first photo was also shot through a very dirty window ; ) Thanks for the observation.

Beautiful Scenery....

That snow almost has a spiritual quality about it.

Thank you Pete...
