Stunning Landscape in Tsushima

Greetings, Gaming Photographer! How are you today? I hope you have an hively awesome day! This post is my entry for the weekly contest. It's a fun and challenging contest to participate in. To my friend @tommyl33 , you are always invited to join the fun!

There are many stunning landscape in Tsushima. I am sure all the contest's participants are working hard to find the right spot to take photos too. I have been struggling with tiredness and fatigue these past few days. I can't really sleep enough, but who does, right? I just remembered about the weekly contest a few hours ago, and I hope I am not too late to participate.

Kuta Farmstead

The first place that I came across today was Kuta Farmstead. It's a farm at the top of a hill, and you can see a beautiful ocean view from up here. I got one of my cool red straw hats from this place recently. So, it's quite memorable for me.

Kuta River

It's brilliant to have a river that supplies the water for the farmstead. Without this river, it will be odd to have the kuta farm. It has great view too! A shoot that one must take.

Border between Kuta Farmstead and Kuta Grassland

This Kuta name remind me of my late dog. I named her Kuta. I never thought that there will be a place name that had identical name. So this Kuta area has really stunning beauty everywhere.

Kuta Grassland

The first landscape that caught my attention before I stepped into Tsushima world was this white grassland. I am stunned by how beautiful the virtual world inside is. I admit, this game, so far, has the best immersive landscape that I have ever stepped into. But, that being said, I have never played other games like Red Redemption and Wild Hunt, yet, and I admit both game's landscapes come close to reality!

Kuta River Bridge

In the next photo, I bring you to Kuta River Bridge. The view was taken when the sun was about to rise. It's early in the morning. The sun rising right in the middle of the bridge was one nice shot. I really like it!

Azamo Haiku

Azamo Haiku like any Haiku in the world of Tsushima, rewards the player for completing the poem. It's a great place and has a great view. After choosing sentences to reference metaphor of nature, player will be rewarded a headband which is great for the collection.

Golden Summit Shrine

We can see Golden Summit Shrine from a distance. It is a really high place in game. To take this picture, one must climb the hill and go through some dangerous parts. There is a haiku located at the middle, before reaching the top. But after a while, reaching the top will be worth it!

Ariake Haiku

Most Haiku I found so far were located near the water, except for the Golden Summit Haiku. There's no water there, just hill, and a view from a higher place. Here in Ariake Haiku, it has really clam water, with layers of fog, give a sense of calmness whenever you look at it.

Yagata Farmstead

My first farmstead that I reached at the beginning of my time in this world. Now, I almost forgot about Yagata Farmstead, I am far away from this place already, but I can always comeback. I did come back today, just to take in the beauty of it. And, it's worth it. It's beautiful as ever, just like the first time I saw it.

Komoda Lighthouse, Saicho's Point

Then, I move to Komoda Lighthouse, a sun set view from this place feels just right. And, this place bring back the memory, Lady Masako. Take comfort in knowing that they all are at peace, that's what Lady Masako said. It's deeply touch my heart. This virtual place will leave a mark in my heart whenever I come to visit it here.

Kiyomori's Landing

A place where the chaos began, a place where women lost her husband, and her sons, a place where memories of sadness carved by the blood of loved one. And yet, it has beauty of it's own. A uniqueness that no place is equal to it.

Stone Dragon Shrine

I took this picture from above. I can't go there, yet. I don't have the required tools, that's what the system said. I wonder what the tools are. I know I just have to keep playing until one day I step foot on the top of this shrine.

Shigenori's Rest

How will I forget about this place, a place where epic sword battles lived not long ago? I learned Heavenly Strike skill in here, surprisingly, I learnt it while fighting with the samurai here, he was a strong foe, and there are many swords stuck on the ground, making this 'rest' place unique and horrifying. It will be another tale to be told in the next post. The movement of Heavenly Strike is truly what make Jin a true classic samurai.

Before leaving, I take more shots from different places in the word of Tsushima, but limited to places that I already discovered. Each place has different beauty. Every place has it's own variety, that makes it unique. Oh ya, by the way, no battle or blood was shed during the photowalking season for this contest. All Mongols and bandits, bad manners guys, that I encountered were left to live peacefully in the beauty and stunning world of Tsushima. 😆
