（日本語のテキストは英語の後に）
I was born in an inland city. Exactly saying, the nearest beach was not so far, just 2 hours from my parents house, but I believe that the sea was a sort of exotic place that I could not visit without preparation. After growing up, needless to say, I learnt that I can go there at anytime. Still a sea is my special place and I like to see boats.
日本に住む限りは海が遠い場所などないに等しいわけだが、海なし県に生まれたというだけでどういう訳か海が遠く特別な場所と感じてしまうものだ。大人になって海に行きたければ行けば良いと理解したものだが、それでも海は特別な場所で船を見ているのが好きなのである。

It’s interesting how our perception of things change as we grow up, time also changes, I think. That said, your first photo as a timeless quality to it, very peaceful.
Thank you for giving me your insight and I agree with you. Peaceful time and place probably made my photo how it was.
So true Tanu! I enjoyed your perspective on the challenge and loved both of your images, especially the second which really feels “old-time”!
Thank you for the words. The second image was taken at a lower deck of a very old but beautiful ship anchored at Yokohama.
Thanks for sharing these amazing images. Anita
Thank you for your message as usual. Have a good week!
The boat on the sea is so tranquil as it sets off with the sun in the background. A great memory for you to looking back.
A quiet moment before it got dark made everything beautiful and tranquil. Good memories.
