Chitose is located at a latitude of 42 degrees north, and borders Sapporo, the political, economic and cultural center of Hokkaido. The city is also situated in south-central Hokkaido and at the southern end of the Ishikari Plain. At New Chitose Airport (one of Japan’s major hubs), 33 domestic routes, 11 international routes to six countries and 21 international charter routes to 13 countries are in service (as of 2007). Additionally, Tomakomai Port, which hosts international container routes, is located approximately 26 km from the city center (30 minutes by car). The city is constantly developing as a domestic and international physical distribution base as well as an important transportation hub.

MY COMMENTS ABOUT THIS EXCELLENT PHOTOGRAPH

My first impression upon viewing this marvelous photograph concerned the elements of our lifetime. It would be up to us to add the fire, but one can sense the photographers energy as it associates with lively sky, the waves lapping at the shoreline, the boulders and the rocks still in the process of becoming sand. Yes, it was energy and beauty combined that became visual in an abstract manner.

To be less philosophical, let me say simply that I think it is one of the best scenes I have viewed.

CONGRATULATIONS TO CHITOSE-KIM FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPH.
