Petit English Garden of MARPLE & POIROT

My wife and I started gardening in Fukuoka (Japan) in 2003. There was nothing but muddy clayey sloping land. At the beginning we made several structure such as steps and paths, and planted turf, fruit trees, roses, herbs etc. In 2010, we visited several famous English gardens, including Sissinghurst Castle Garden, Mottisfont Abbey Garden and Hidcote Manor Garden. We were shocked by the glory of those gardens. Since then, we have been trying to make small but glorious gardens by ourselves.

庭の紹介

　夫婦で庭づくりを福岡の郊外で2003年に始めました.　赤土むきだしの斜面にまず階段や園路をつくって芝をはり、果樹やバラ、ハーブなどを植えました.

　2010年にイギリスの有名なガーデンの、シシングハースト、モティスフォントアビー、ヒドコートマナーなどを回り、その素晴らしさに圧倒され、それから自分たちで小さくても素晴らしい庭をめざして庭づくりをつづけています.

MORNING GLOW IN AUTUMN (秋の朝焼け)

The season of beautiful dawn skies is upon us. Autumn brings clear air, and clouds often take forms that are beautifully tinged by the morning sun. No two skies are ever the same; it's a once-in-a-lifetime encounter. Here is a video showcasing some of the dawn skies I have witnessed thus far.

朝焼けの美しい季節がやってきます。秋は空気が澄んで、雲も朝日で美しく染まる形が多くなるからでしょう。同じ空は二度となく、一期一会です。これまで見てきた朝焼けの一部を動画でご紹介します。
