A Photo a Week Challenge : Take a New Photo

I didn’t even have a destination. I didn’t even have any subject. I just took a small camera and then something told me to push down a silver small button on top of a black metal. A time was still passing through a locked down city and nobody remembered how to spend the time. 
Everything is now different and new but nothing has been drifting. A strange and bit ordinary spring day goes here. 

特にあてがあるわけでも撮りたい何かがあるわけでもなく、黒い金属の上にある銀色のボタンを押せと言うよくわからない衝動だけがあった。閉じられた街は何も変わってなどいない。それでもどう過ごしたものかも分からず、何もかもが違って新しく見える春が来た。

A Photo a Week Challenge : Faded

At dawn, everything was covered by cold mist. Colours were missed and the silence ruled the canal. While everybody who liked coffee and croissants started their new busy day, sky was gradually becoming blue and bare trees were showing details.
I love to walk along a canal even it is still faded.

冬は朝霧の季節であって、陽が登り始めても色が失われていることがしばしば。そんな色あせた運河沿いを歩くのも悪くない。

A Photo a Week Challenge : Something New

Everything was vague but it was always new. New day was covered by a vail of uncertain tomorrow but was our future. Nothing was different but still new.

何も変わらずとも、何かが曖昧で不確かであろうと、新しい明日はある。

A Photo a Week Challenge : She’s Got The Look

The crocus flower has suddenly appeared in a winter day. It is still cold and rains everyday. Trees are bare and you have no flowers. But she is there. She’s got the look. 

ちょっと時間も限られていて、近くの公園の写真が精一杯。でも春はいいなとワクワクしてきた。

A Photo a Week Challenge : Something Pretty

It should be a good season to see some small wild animals. It is winter. Trees shed the leaves and grasses are getting smaller and waiting for a warmer wind. An European red squirrel was having a breakfast on a branch. It is always agile and cute but it is not so easy to be close but, once you watch it through your binocular, you may find its pretty shape.

夏の間、木々の間で可愛らしさを見せていたヨーロッパ赤リスは、冬になって姿がよく見えるようになると、キリッとした小綺麗な姿が印象的になる。
