New Year's Daybreak at Shirahama

Location: Shirahama Beach, Shimoda, Shizuoka, Japan Timestamp: 06:56 on January 3, 2024

Pentax K-1 II + DFA 28-105mm F3.5-5.6 31 mm ISO 800 for 1/640 sec. at ƒ8.0

My first visit to Shirahama Beach on the western coast of the Izu Peninsula located 175 km (107 mi) southwest of Tokyo was in the late 1980s. Barbecues on the beach, following a day of swimming or surfing, were popular back then. Unfortunately, as time passed, some beachgoers neglected to clean up after themselves, leading to the prohibition of beachside barbecues by the late 90s.

In response, local merchants and entrepreneurs initiated delivery services for food, drinks, beach umbrellas, and inflatable floats. They also patrolled the beach for litterbugs. Overall, this change significantly improved the beach's cleanliness for almost two decades now.

Most of my beach visits have been in summer, with a few during winter. However, this year marked my first New Year's holiday visit. After tending to the family graveyard, I took the scenic route home, making stops at Shirahama Beach and Shirahama Shrine for the traditional New Year's shrine visit (初詣・hatsumode) and to witness the first sunrise of the year (初日の出・hatsuhinode). Despite the usual recommendation to observe hatsuhinode on January 1st, I waited until January 3rd to avoid the beach crowds and heavy traffic back to Tokyo.

Setting up my camera and tripod for this shot, I paused to reflect. The crashing waves, gentle flow of seawater around beach stones, and the warm glow of the rising sun created a serene atmosphere. Amidst the fresh ocean breeze, contemplating my fortunes over the past 40 years, I found myself captivated by nature's beauty and felt grateful for the chance to appreciate this moment.

遙かなる石段

2011年、久能山東照宮。

前回に来た時はロープウェイで登ってここを降りてきた。2回目のこの時はここから上がっていった。思いのほか膝は笑わなかったw。

plain white carbs are the greatest thing when queasy. and that fruit tea was expensive but one of the best i’ve ever had.

#rest stop in shizuoka during the big drive to move #the tea there really is good #i don’t get real true inner ear motion sickness but ever since daily NSAIDs i feel a bit queasy when in a car for long periods of time #it’s the same as meds queasiness when i’m not in a car #it’s kinda odd i guess but man toast is awesome when you feel nauseous #chronic illness #innko eats #静岡

✿ 茶そば | Cha Soba ・そば粉に抹茶を練りこんで打った変わりそばの一種です。ゆで上げたあと水洗いし、もう一度湯通しして熱もりにして提供するのが本来の仕立て方で、この方がお茶とそばの香りが生きてくるとされています。静岡県の郷土そばとしてが有名ですが、山口県ではこの茶そばにと具材を熱した瓦の上で火を入れ、と温かいめんつゆ食べる名物料理があります。具材は一般的に小ねぎ、海苔、レモン、もみじおろし、錦糸卵、細切れの牛肉が使われることが多いそうです。
