The rice field scenery in the Aomori/Tsugaru region and the train running in the dusk are currently attracting attention online.

The hot topic is a video taken by Twitter account, Takuma Marume, on May 28 near Konan Railway Konan Line "Kashiwanokogaku-mae Station". When I posted that "Konan train is just a video of arriving at the station and leaving", "It seems to be used for some commercials." "The blue impulse is beautiful but the speed of this train is also beautiful." "Spirited Away" "I can't feel it" (original mama), and I got more than 15,000 retweets and more than 53,000 likes (as of May 31, 13:00).

The Tsugaru region is currently in the rice planting season. Many photographers and photographers use Tsugaru Fuji to shoot Mt. Iwaki using a flooded rice field as a water mirror. In recent years, SNS has been used to post messages from local residents.

Mr. Maruume is a male in his 30s living in Hirosaki, and as a hobby, he takes pictures in Aomori prefecture. He said that he was trying to shoot the train reflected on the sunset and rice fields against the backdrop of Mt. “I was thinking that I could make a photo like a shadow shot using the sunset,” says Marume.

I shot it around 19:40. In addition to taking pictures, he tried to shoot on a smartphone with the intention of sending it immediately on Twitter, but he said that he also made a video to include the voice of the frog, the train, and the sound of the level crossing. Mr. Maruume said, "I thought there was a certain amount of "likes" within my group, but there were many reactions that seemed to remind me of my hometown, and I was deeply moved."

Mr. Maruume says he does not know the reason for the spread. "It's because there are many people who couldn't return home either during spring break or during Golden Week because of the new coronavirus. I'm happy if the scenery that is commonplace in the locals can heal those people even a little. I show a smile." "If you can also use the Konan Railway," he said.
