The best part of the winter along the eastern coast of Chiba Prefecture is the earth is still green and not covered with snow. With little to no snow, unlike Hokkaido or Nagano, there is plenty signs of life during the winter. Here I captured some of the bright winter foliage and scenes that can be seen during the mild winter in Japan. All photos are taken in Sosa City, Chiba, where the temperature rarely drops under 0 degrees celsius.
