Nagano

Nice shot. Beautiful. It has me sold. I'm gonna leave everything behind and go into hermitude in the mountains. See ya!

unlike the last picture of the day (auto models) this is a very beautiful picture.

Nice shot - snow on the trees is always a winner.

Nice picture, no effect of global warming !

it's climate change.

Nice shot, thanks!

MeanRingo - You do realize, of course, that if you go there you'll freeze your buns off.

I miss my home...a distant memories from my childhood..

I've been there. Its even more incredible in real life.

VOR - You would rather walk in the snow in the mountains in Nagano in boots and a heavy coat than walk on the beach in Guam in a T-shirt and shorts?

A very nice picture.

that's more like it!

Beautiful. JT, please please please feature more shots like this as Picture of the Day. Very few people are interested in photographs of "talent" promoting another product. Japan is a beautiful and interesting country - showcase those aspects of it rather than actors plugging a new cellphone.

nice shot.. yes agree with Mayuki-san... JT pls give us more shots of nature....

Wow, beautiful, thanks for this shot. However, the family and I are off tomorrow for Trinidad, 7 days in the sun. Seems we agree Sarge.

Wow.

What Mayuki said.

sarge, ahhhhh. you got me. if i had my choice, i'd choose the beach over the mountains anytime. still that view from the top of Mt Yakebitai prior to the last run of the day brings back great memories.

You sure this picture wasn't taken in Columbia? Looks like a lot of snow to me. ROTFLMAO

Thank you for something pure and beautiful as pic of the day.

Beautiful shot!

Mayuki, we are in the minority. Most readers prefer some talent in a skimpy outfit, judging from the number of comments.

rurika -- add me to that minority.

PSmash I am sure the photographer wud HAPPILY sell you a higher rez picture!

Great Shot, I agree with Mayuki-san. Japan has so many beautifull pictures to offer, please share more of them!

Picture perfect :D
