It's spring now!!! Let's take a look at our front yard :-) ....the rice field!
Spring (April 2009)- plowing of rice fields in front of our house
I think I have to wait for the "planting of rice"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's compare the 4 seasons in Misawa using the rice fields as the subject :-)
Summer of 2008, it was the end of July when we moved in our new house and saw the rice field!! I was so excited and grabbed my compact camera and took this shot.
Summer- rice were planted
Fall- sowing; after a week I took this shot again; the tractor (whatever they call that) is separating the rice from the hay and transferring the rice to the other tractor.
Fall (Oct 2008)- hay stacks
Winter- rice fields covered with snow
One of the yellow houses is our house and you can see the distance of our house to rice field :-) the one lane street separates us from the rice fields.

hi mama (: happy anniversary to you & papa today! ^__^; congratulations po!! :)
i like the pictures of the rice fields throughout the different seasons! :) it made me realize we've been living in misawa for ALMOST four-complete-seasons!! time flies by, huh?! *;]
i love the rice fields in the summer though... the green color is so appealing to the eyes, while in winter... the snow is the most delicate item in the photograph!
great shots! :]
i love you po!!!
Love it. Just love it. I remember when I was in Southeast Asia, I saw the people and oxen working the rice fields. I know they wished they would have had tractors.
You captured everything beautifully!
I love the time lapse - the photos are great.
Whoa, very cool, glad that you took photos of what the rice field looks like every season, great idea! Awesome photos too!
Everything looks dead during Winter!
Do they use machine now when planting the rice? I'm envious of the view from your house.
What a fascinating series of shots! And what a beautiful area! Thanks for stopping by Ocala DP!
wow ang ganda nung seasons! :) i haven't seen snow yet. kasi when we went to the states, hindi pa winter. snow capped mountain lang nakita ko. huhuhu...uwi moko ng snow ha. :)
Wow! I liked the pictures of the different seasons in Japan. As you know, you just don't see seasons in Hawaii.
I loved the photos! I saw the changes from season to season. Thanks for sharing this.
