A Photo a Week Challenge : Up Close and Personal

‘Orange osmanthus’ gives out a strong sweet smell

I have forgotten how I feel of getting nostalgic. A town where I was growing up has been totally changed, a sea shore I was spending my collage time is already uncertain in my heart and now it is impossible to go back to my home town ten thousand kilo meters far from here. I don’t have so many reasons to think about there anymore. 

Nevertheless, a small unexpected thing may bring my thought to my place in memories. Time to time, it might be a taste of beans, a colour of leaves or a smell of blossoms. 

ノスタルジーなど元々感じたこともないと思っていたが、ちょっとした匂いや味にふとかつて住んでいた場所を思うことに気がついた。

    1. Perhaps as you may know, it is very popular in Japan and its sweet smell makes a beautiful autumn day – just one or two days – every year.

    1. Yes, and the small scattered flowers are also beautiful. It makes a golden pavement just one day.
