Marbling today
Today, October 23rd, is the "marbling" of the 24 solar terms. The cold in the morning and evening becomes more severe, and it is the time when frost falls on the ground and vegetation. As the autumn leaves of the trees progress, the trees surrounding the "Hotai Falls" in Yuri Honjo City, Akita Prefecture are also dyed bright red and yellow, creating a contrast with the white splashes of the waterfall...
"Hotai Falls" is a beautiful waterfall that falls over the Akazawa River, upstream of the Koyoshi River, and consists of three waterfalls: the first waterfall, the second waterfall, and the third waterfall. There are many potholes around the waterfall that were carved by lava flows 100,000 years ago, and these potholes, along with the waterfall, have been designated as scenic spots and natural monuments of Akita Prefecture.

Blue Monday
It's not easy to keep your spirits up on a winter Monday, especially when it comes to the famous Blue Monday, this day that is supposed to be the most depressing of the year. This concept originates from a calculation combining weather, post-holiday debts and a drop in motivation. But did you know that colors can have a magical effect on our mood?
In Gouville-sur-Mer, Normandy, the cabins with colorful roofs covered in snow seem to defy the monotony of winter. Bright red, deep blue and sunny yellow contrast with the white landscape, reminding us that even in the middle of the cold season, it is possible to find bursts of life and joy.
So, why not take inspiration from these cabins to brighten up your day? A splash of colour in your surroundings, whether it's a bright sweater or a flowering plant, can be enough to chase away the greyness of Blue Monday.

Serenity by the sea
As the summer wanes here in the northern hemisphere, spring is just getting started in Australia. This serene sunset scene is at the Entrance beach in the Central Coast region in New South Wales, a popular holiday destination here on Australia’s east coast. It’s called the Entrance because it is the gateway to Tuggerah Lake off to the north – acting as a narrow channel between it and the Pacific Ocean on the opposite side.
Just over an hour’s drive from Sydney, the small town packs plenty of history, and is home to both Norah Head Lighthouse, built in 1903, and a classic carousel built in Germany during the late 1800s, which is still popular with children today. But because the Entrance area has six different beaches to enjoy, most still visit for the perfect combination of sand, surf and sun.

The dome of the Canadian Museum of Civilization
The Canadian Museum of History lies in Gatineau, Que. on the banks of the Ottawa River. Formerly known as the Canadian Museum of Civilization, it got renamed with a new mandate in 2013. With an increased focus on Canadian history, archaeology and ethnology, a visit here makes for an enriching experience back in time through years of history. Known for its spectacular architecture, the museum was designed by Douglas Cardinal to feature elements from the Canadian landscape.

Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada
The sky is intoxicatingly blue, the high mountains are faintly covered with snow, and the lake is clear and calm, faintly glowing with blue light under the sun...... Jasper National Park is a great place to take a picture of a blockbuster.
