We define that we can feel nostalgia in our home country. Something to see, to eat, and to listen bring much nostalgia to us at any time. That is not patriotism. We do not love our nation, but love our country.Especially speaking, the climates, manners, cultures and more are very important for the people who live in the country to know what makes us feel nostalgia because I often forget to live in Japan while I am a Japanese.
Landscapes in casual life has any elements that we might to love our country. However, many people aren't recognized with it. We can enumerate the reason why Japanese are not accustomed to life with foreign cultures. Most Japanese have no chance to encounters directly a different culture other than TV, Web, or movies. For such a reason, we can't consider our nostalgia besides as long as going abroad.
Thus, I'm likely to take many photographs, especially landscapes unconsciously. They have any indicators to know Japan itself and possibility to be a trigger that many Japanese try to know their own country.
There are landscapes what wake us up around us certainly. And we can feel good and nostalgia to which we have ever seen. Because we are Japanese.
