View to the North from Asukayama - Attractive spring scene of people gathering atop Asuka Hill to picnic and enjoy the blossoming cherry trees. Some relax with sake on mats spread on the grass, while others stroll about the hillside. Tall pine trees frame a view of the fields beyond, with a yellow haze hanging over the plains, and Mt. Tsukuba rises above the horizon. A charming image with lovely color and fine bokashi shading.
