Once I get better at this, the pictures may line up with the text...

Here are more shots of the clever art fields of Japan:

Fictional warrior Naoe Kanetsugu and his wife, Osen, whose lives are featured on the television series 'Tenchijin' appear in fields in the town of Yonezawa in the Yamagata prefecture of Japan .

This year,various artwork has popped up in other rice-farming areas of Japan , including designs of deer dancers.Smaller works of 'crop-art' can be seen in other rice-farming areas of Japan such as this image of Doraemon and deer dancers

How interesting. The Japanese culture values beauty very highly. My late dear sister in law was Japanese and she just HAD to have flowers in the bathroom. I am no gardener and she was known to clip a few of my neighbors' flowers to create a lovely arrangement for the bathroom while visiting me. I always appreciated her efforts.

Brought to mind the crop circles so often seen in the UK. These are interesting, too!
