I have been to the island of kawaii, where i spoke with several locals about the helicopters and experienced first hand the effects of helicopters flying low over areas of nature. It’s not just something I made up, it’s a very real problem. I was at one of the tallest waterfalls in kawaii, at the end of a several mile hike, when all the sudden the forest got deathly quiet, and then a helicopter was heard.

If you are going for the cherry blossoms and get the opportunity, take the Shinkansen up to Aomori Prefecture and go the Hirosaki Castle. The actual Cherry Blossom Festival isn't until late April but it's still an amazing place to visit. I was stationed in Aomori Prefecture for 3+ years and there is an incredible amount uncommon tourist stuff to see there. Lake Towada is a lake formed by a huge volcanic blast that is ringed by hotels, onsens, and walking paths and was very cheap to visit. Cape Shiryazaki is a section of beautiful coast with wild horses, cliffs/unique rock formations, and a light house. It honestly looks like it belongs in Ireland, not Japan. While driving to these places there are cool little roadside produce stands and shrines everywhere. When I first got stationed in Japan I was really bummed that I wasn't in Tokyo but when I left I couldn't have imagined having been anywhere else other than Aomori.

Continued to go through my camera roll and thought I’d share a photo from my Malaysia trip a few years back. I still have Worldscapes 4K playing in the background while I do my daily tasks and it continues to inspire me to get more of my landscape and nature shots out.
One of my favourite shots from the trip overall, felt like an endless valley towards the mountain during my little adventure.
