I’m not the type to make New Year’s resolutions. I know it will be abandoned soon. I’m not the kind of person who prays for a good year. I know I’m not going to do anything for the world. However, I believe that our planet will always improve into the future if you and I trust in each other. I wish you are starting a happy and good new year.
One of the most popular articles in English this year was “Lens Artists Challenge #275: Filling the Frame,” which talked about how much I missed fall. I don’t like to mention global warming in all phenomena related to extreme weather, but this year’s hot summer and autumn were clearly not so pleasant and unlike in the past.
Another popular article is “LAPC – Spiritual Sites.” After moving from Western France to Yokohama, Japan, I visited the southern islands of the Yaeyama Islands for vacation. Everything was beautiful and every food was delicious. If there is a place I have never been to, it would be Utaki, a sacred place where you should not set foot. I will definitely visit there again in the future.
A photo on top was taken at the Yaeyama islands. It’s a nice and calming scenery to end this year.
