View of Nature in Japan, Background Slideshows–windows into Japanese scenery–

(日本の自然像、バックグラウンド・スライドショー–日本の風景を映す窓–)

Background-slideshow (BGSS) windows display photos of Japanese landscape, waterscape, and also cityscape, with classical music. 

The slideshows are memories of trips/walks in various places from Hokkaido to Kyushu.

A preferred BGSS might be left playing and repeating in the background like music.

4 BGSS books and 18 BGSSs.

P.S.

A wide variety of Japanese nature is attributed to the ancient and recent geographical history. 

The main parts of the Japanese islands were born at the boundary between the Asian continent and the Pacific Ocean 10-20 million years ago.

The island arcs in Japan are convex to the sea and mountainous due to the back-arc basin formation, the extensive volcanism, the uplift, and so on.

The Japanese islands were often connected with the Asian continent during the ice ages, and have been separated since about 15 thousand years ago. 

The current climate and vegetation in Japan are mostly temperate, and are varied/diversified by the elongated distribution of the islands, the steep topography, the monsoons from the Asian continent and the Pacific Ocean, and the surrounding ocean currents.

The metropolis is considerable as a large nest of human beings, then Tokyo's cityscape could be included in Japanese nature.

In addition, there are many parks and gardens with scenic greenery and watersides in Tokyo.

The Japanese islands may be well-packed with a lot of the characteristic scenery.
