Entry Description

This photography was taken in February in Nagano-ken at an altitude of about 1,700 m. In Japan, February is the coldest season in a year. Diamond dust can be seen only a few times during cold season. Orange circle is diamond dust. Diamond dust might be occurred on sunny morning under -10 degrees. And it is a very small crystal of ice, drifting in the air. I use the soft bokkeh to portray its glitter.
