雨上がりの蓮の花(Lotus Flower)

雨上がりの水滴が滴る蓮の花

As the rain stopped, I went to a lotus pond in the park to shoot lotus flowers.
After the rain the lotus flowers had water drops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

蓮の花(Lotus Flower)

梅雨空の元、蓮の花が開き始めました
未だ数輪ですが後１週間もすれば葉の存在が分からないくらいに
綺麗な花が見られるでしょう

The rainy season sky, the lotus flowers began to open.
Although it is still a few wheels, you will be able to see lots of beautiful flowers in the next week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

かやぶき音楽堂ピアノデュオコンクール(Kayabuki Ongakudo International Competition for Piano Duo)

京都府南丹市にあるかやぶき音楽堂でピアノデュオコンクールが
開催されているので聴きに行った

Piano duo competition at Kayabiki Music Hall in Nantan City, Kyoto Prefecture
I went to listen to being held.

 

 

 

京都駅から山陰線で約1時間で最寄りの駅である胡麻駅に到着

そこには見渡す限りの田園風景が広がっていた

 

 From Kyoto Station arrived at Goma Station which is the nearest station of the Kayabuki Ongakudo  about an hour on the Sanin line.
There was a rural scenery spreading as far as I could see.

 

 

駅から音楽堂まで田園風景を楽しみながら歩いて15分で到着

I enjoyed the country scenery and arrived in Kayabuki Ongakudo in 15 minutes on foot.

 

 

It is designated as a registered tangible cultural asset.

以下は会場内の様子(The inside of the hall.)

 

 

 

高い天井には音を吸収しすぎないように反射板が設置されている

 

Reflector is installed so that the sound is not absorbed too much because the ceiling is high.

 

 

休憩時間(Break time)

 

 

 

 

音響設計が十分に尽くされた街のコンサートホールとは違ってかやぶき屋根の建物で

どのような音が聞こえるのか興味津々で来てみた

さすが音楽堂と言うだけあって、しっかりと音響効果を考えた設えになっていた

そして、そこで演奏された曲目はすべて珠玉の演奏であった

 

Unlike the concert hall of the city where the acoustic design was fully performed,

I was curiously interested in what kind of sound can be heard in a thatched roof building.

As expected, it was only set as a mucic hall, and it was set firmly considering sound effects.

And all the music played was a performance of a gem.

 

笹ゆり(Lilium japonicum)

京都府南丹市の田舎道を歩いていて笹ゆりの群生地に遭遇
綺麗な花に感動し撮影した

I am walking down the country road in Nantan City, Kyoto Prefecture, encountered the colony of Lilium japonicum.
I was impressed by a beautiful flower and photographed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

甘茶の花(Sweet tea flowers)

京都建仁寺の塔頭の一つである霊源院に甘茶の花が咲いています
甘茶の花は額紫陽花と酷似していて見分けがつけにくい
寺の人の説明では飲めるのが甘茶で飲めないのが紫陽花とのこと

Sweet tea flowers are blooming at Reigenin Temple which is sub temple of Kyoto Kenninji.
The sweet tea flower is very similar to forehead hydrangea and it is difficult to distinguish.
In the explanation of the temple people, it is hydrangea that you can not drink with sweet tea.
