Red-Crowned Cranes In The Winter mist, 1st March 2019. Otowa Bridge, Tsurui-Mura. This spot attracted many photographers for taking the picture of cranes in their nesting ground with morning light and mist. The temperature Minus around 10 c. In January and February even colder to minus 20 c or below in the early morning. Standing on Otowa Bridge to wait for the first light, every finder and toe can be frozen. The scenery is more beautiful when the temperature is colder and at any moment a sudden tiny gust of wind might part to reveal that one picture. During my time was there on March the weather had changed, lost the real beauty of this scenery.
