Photo Challenge: Details

201607-301

Looking into the detail of rain.
Catching the light of the sky in vain.

Last one month, it has been rainy in Yokohama. Fine weather continues only one or two days and dark clouds come again. Sometimes I have found myself being reluctant to go out with my camera. When I saw this week’s challenge, I came up with focusing on rain drops or something like that.

このひと月、横浜は雨模様。晴天は二日しか続かず、雲がふたたびやってくる。気付けばカメラを持って出かけるも億劫という始末。今週のWPCは、そんなことから雨粒にフォーカス。

Humid evening

English text at bottom

裂けてスポンジがむき出しになった孤独なベージュのシート
踏みつけられるごとに規則正しい悲鳴をあげる義務感に追われたペダル
すっかり刈り取られたはずの蔦が再び物憂げな空を見上げる石壁
灰色の雨と青緑色の雨の合間に息を吐くエンジン

繰り返し通り抜ける路地にいつまでも警戒し続ける猫と
繰り返し重い足を持ち上げる階段に猫を探す夕暮れ
湿った夏草の匂いもまた夕餉までの渇きの一部をなし
湿ったシャツの襟元もまた1日の終わりを示す

Here comes the hot and humid night in Yokohama. It’s still in the rainy season and I need to find a better way to sleep well every night. Sometimes I wonder if it would take decades before I supposed to be able to get my own nights but, of course, I know it’s just a kind of exaggerated sigh.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Look Up

 

201607-201

Looking up the city to find my position,
Aware of being small.
Looking down the city to confirm the soil,
Awaken myself to missing portion.

自分の居場所を探そうと都市を見上げれば
小ささを知り
踏みつける土を確かめようとその町を見下ろせば
無くした欠片に気づく
