Pale-colored blue pond before freezing (Biei-cho)
A fantastic blue pond that can only be seen before the freeze.
This sight was truly a once in a lifetime experience!

A word from the Domingo editorial team
Shirogane Blue Pond" is one of the popular sightseeing spots in Biei.
You can enjoy the beauty of nature throughout the year: the contrast between the blue surface of the water and the lush green trees in summer, the autumn leaves in fall, and the snowy scene on the frozen pond in winter.
The pond is also illuminated from November to April, so you will want to visit again and again!
Smiling striped eagles (Sapporo)
This is a Striped Egret that I encountered just as the first snow fell and winter was about to arrive in earnest.
They are called "snow fairies" because they turn white and fluffy in the middle of winter.

A word from Domingo's editorial department
As they are called "snow fairies," these handsome, round, pure-white creatures are very, very cute.
In fact, this appearance is only seen in winter! In summer, they look sleek and smart...
Please be sure to look carefully around the trees when you go out so that you don't miss the little Striped Egrets 👀!
Town of fog and ice (Furano City)
A cold morning in Furano. The whole town was magically covered in white with fog and ice.

A word from the Domingo editorial team
Furano City is popular for its lavender and its countryside scenery that changes with the seasons.
The silver world of winter, when the whole area turns white, is also beautiful 📸!
I am looking forward to seeing the flowers from now on, but this one makes me feel sorry for the end of winter.
