This morning, it has become colder since last night, and although there is no wind, it is a chilly morning.
There are clouds on the horizon, but it was a beautiful sunrise.
I plan to go to the mountains again today, and my body is finally getting used to the
winter mountains.
It takes time to adapt to this, and I can feel the effects of aging.
"The sunrise position is approaching its southernmost point.
There are still three weeks until the winter solstice, but the rate of southward
movement will slow during this time.
This morning, the temperature seems to have returned to the usual for this time of
year, and there is no wind.
Starting today, it's December, and various year-end tasks await..."
Today marks the beginning of December, and I can't help but feel that there has been
an increase in car traffic since early morning.
The weather is unfavorable, preventing me from capturing the starry sky or the sunrise.
Although it's the weekend today, I anticipate being busier starting next week.
I am grateful to have work.
"I shoot at home almost every day, and this serves as training to quickly and efficiently operate my filming equipment.
Additionally, I make efforts to set up the equipment reliably in a short amount of time.
As I often engage in TimeLapse video shooting, the camera needs to be completely stable.
While I typically use a tripod, in cases where the camera is lightweight or when using
an ultra-wide-angle lens, it is necessary to bring the camera forward to prevent unwanted elements from appearing in the frame.
In such situations, a tripod is unsuitable, so I use a fixed device similar to the one shown in the photo.
It allows for easy attachment and detachment, improving overall productivity."
"Last night, the clouds disappeared, and it became a beautiful dawn.
I prepared for the shoot from 5 in the morning, set up my camera, and started a one-
hour time-lapse."
"There are no large clouds on the horizon, but it's a slightly hazy dawn.
The outside temperature is 5°C, and after an hour of shooting, holding the tripod feels
really cold.
It seems that the camera's heat dissipation is improved, as the battery consumption is
lower than in summer.
Today is a full moon, and it's the last week of November.
The sunrise time is still getting later, but the sunset time has hit its low point. In early
December, it will start to reverse, marking the onset of full-fledged winter."
"The Morgenrood (Morning Road) of snow-capped Mt. Ibuki is naturally inaccessible
during winter.
On the left, you can see Ichinomiya City Hall.
I will be heading out for photography shortly..."
