Mostly Monochrome Monday: whenever

Whenever it’s been a cold rainy day, I found myself having taken colorless pictures more or less.
Whatever I took, I found a plenty of colors on it even if it was close to a monochrome.

寒い雨の日にカメラを取り出せば、どういうわけか色の少ない写真を撮りたくなる。
そうやって何を撮ろうが、撮った写真には色が見えてくる。たとえ、実際にはモノクロームの写真のようであっても。

Poinsettia having scarlet petallike leaves is a popular plant for the Christmas also in Japan. It requires darkness more than 12 hours to start changing color and does also brightness for vivid color. In addition it must be warm at least higher than 5C(40F). OK, fine! Here’s a picture of poinsettia in transition.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Victory

201511-301

It has been a long time after I spent my winter holiday in Canada for skiing. I had a parallel slalom race there and lost it to a German skier. At the night, I was hanging out to find my table for dinner at a crowded party and finally found a small place to take my time in eating. Then, looking around me, the German was smiling next to me. What a coincidence! Of course, I enjoyed the night with him talking about many things. I lost the game but won a small victory of my life. Mountains are now far from here but  surely here.
