On 16^th October, at Tokyo hall there was an international culture rage which held as the 12th round. Mr, Nakanishi hiromichi from Usutsubo,Saeki city with 62 years old is the winner of the superior price chosen one from Oita Godo newspaper. Mr. Nakanishi had owned business of the company named "project saiki100" and also been practiced in photograph activity as a PR. After the long period of working hard in the company he quit from the business and started to be interested in photograph completely until nowadays.

His art product that won the price, the story is about Japanese farming and agricultural life style at Aogawa city of Kushinada and Susa no omikoto, the couple was picking up rice together and it was explained by romantic plot with beautiful scenery. It's expressed the feeling and willingness through photograph very well. Mr. Nakanishi, he was participated and sent his 2^nd art product since the last year, the name of the 2^nd product is 'Sumitsuke Matsuri', he said at last that "Although I had confidence of my product, but I didn't think that I could won the superior price so, I'm really happy".

Comment: I'm so surprised that the age can do really good art, before I thought the age people only can do something boring staying at home, but here I'm totally wrong they can create gorgeous arts and show the value of their life which better than some teenagers in these days. Actually, the age people in my country they are doing some kind of creative works but there is not enough supporting from the government. In Japan, there're lots of accesses to reach the goal of life improvement for old people, and I hope that it will be continuing in the future.
