I have no time to go somewhere to shoot something this weekend. Okay, here’s a perfect ordinary pic but I like it.

Photo panoramique: the door, unexpected
When 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。
This post is a part of my weekly photo challenge by The Daily Post. The first post can be seen here.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Habit
I 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.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Eerie
I’m not sure what this really is. Is it a kind of gargoyle? Anyway,I saw this strange object at the Tōshō-gū (東照宮) shrine, Nikko and felt some eerie thing. Probably, it is an imaginary elephant which was carried from China long long ago. (footnoted)
From ancient days, Tōrō (灯籠) has a eerie face. Some stories says you might see someone eerie around midnight and it would be a light tower.

Note: 6 Nov. 2013
Yukitten taught me that the animal in the first picture is Baku, imaginary one from China, having nose of elephant, feet of tiger, etc. Now I understand why such figure is there.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Horizon
A horizon for me has been always a ridge line probably because I like skiing, tramping, water skiing on a lake. I don’t know the reason why I was far from the sea. Exactly saying, I lived in a house very close to a shore, 2 minutes to walk, for several years. It would be a likely reason that I was too close to the sea.
The picture is not where I lived but I like there.
