Snow in Otaru [Winter in Hokkaido, Japan]

Snowy landscapes of Otaru in Hokkaido, Japan, during winter. Late at night, Otaru is quiet with few people around, and the snowy scenery is incredibly beautiful. The falling snow was soft, powdery snow. The illuminated Otaru Canal and the snow lit up by streetlights were spectacular.
