A personal return to Aizu-Wakamatsu, Fukushima—history, quiet atmosphere, and photography—and why it opens our Autumn Foliage & Rural Memories workshop (Nov 4–13, 2026).

Yesterday, I decided to leave my Leica M10 at home and go for a walk with the Sigma FPL. Naturally, I brought along my beloved 35mm lens. I love shooting with the camera's color modes, particularly the Teal and Orange. Here are some moments I captured on the streets, turning ordinary scenes into extraordinary visuals through vibrant and dynamic colors.
