Kanazawa Hakkei

Kanazawa Hakkei

A view from the Kanazawa observation platform. The objective was to take a beautiful picture a mile from the hotel in Kanazawa in the direction of Kamakura for nature lovers, but it was a failure. Below the hill is the Inlet of Goldsberg (name of one of Perry's crew members). In the distance is Webster Island, with the Yokosuka Navy arsenal on the opposite side. From the January 22, 1872 edition of The Far East, in the republished edition.==Date:unknown, Place:Yokohama, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number19‐35‐0]

    China: Rare Twin Waterspouts Filmed off Coast of Guangdong Province

    Two waterspouts were filmed off the coast of Yangjiang, Guangdong province, on June 9, 2026.

      Japan: White Killer Whale Filmed off Rausu, Hokkaido in Rare Encounter

      A rare white killer whale has been spotted off the coast of Rausu, Hokkaido, in northeastern Japan — an exceptionally uncommon sighting even by global standards. The white orca was filmed on Monday, June 8, among a pod of killer whales approximately 3.5 miles (about 6 km) north-northeast of Rausu Port. The animal is believed to be a leucistic individual rather than an albino — leucism results in reduced pigmentation while retaining the ability to produce melanin, unlike albinism, which causes red eyes. The orca's eyes appear dark, which is consistent with leucism.

            China: Pet Fish Tucks Itself Into Favorite Leaf Bed in Hebei

            This is the adorable moment that a pet fish in China insisted on swimming onto a leaf before going to sleep, leaving viewers amused by its bedtime routine. On May 6, 2026, in Hebei, China, the video captured a small fish carefully swimming around its tank before finally settling itself onto a leaf floating in the water. Instead of resting freely in the tank, the fish appeared determined to find its favorite “bed” before falling asleep. The footage showed the tiny creature slowly approaching the leaf and adjusting its body position several times as if trying to get comfortable. After finding the right spot, the fish remained motionless on top of the leaf, looking as though it had peacefully drifted off to sleep. The video ended with the fish quietly resting on the leaf while the water around it remained still.

              Australia: Rainbows Form Over Crashing Waves

              On April 12, 2026, in Australia, a video recorded waves rolling along a rocky coastline under bright sunlight. Blue ocean water moved up and down against the rocks as sea spray filled the air. As sunlight passed through the mist above the waves, a colorful rainbow appeared over the ocean. Soon afterward, another incoming wave created a second rainbow nearby. The scene looked especially vivid because of the clear weather and high visibility along the coast. Rainbows forming directly above moving sea waves are not commonly seen.
