Photo panoramique: the door, unexpected

The doorWhen you open the door, your hand may hover near the doorknob. At least, you would think how you open it. Indeed, it must be easy. You don’t need hesitate. Only a small thing is in front of you.　Is it an unexpected obstacle? Probably No. Such a small barrier always exist.

このドアを開けようとする人は、思わずためらうに違いない。すくなくとも、どうやって開けようかと考えるだろう。実にそれは簡単だ。躊躇する必要などない。小さなツタが目の前にあるだけだ。予想していなかったのかと言えば、そんなことはない。こんな小さな垣根などいつものことではないか。

Weekly Photo Challenge: Unexpected

TrachycarpusIt is surely Trachycarpus, a kind of palm tree(Arecaceae), 棕櫚(Shu-ro) in Japanese but what is that  orange leaves. The unexpected branch with orange leaves appeared on top of the palm tree a few weeks ago. I found it in a morning but I didn’t take care. Then, after several days passed, I understood it is not a part of the palm tree but something different. Probably because it turned to red, I could know it. This strange tree is seen around 4 meters (12 feet) high. Perhaps it put down the root on the palm tree.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Habit

20131109-002I usually walk to the station of a commuter train every morning as common Japanese does. It takes around 20 minutes but a problem is not a time or distance but weak light of a morning in winter because I leave my home at 6 am. One of my favorite things to do is to listen to tweets of birds and to find a sign of coming season.

When I get to the station close to my office, the sun light is still diffidence sometime.
