A vivid capture of ginkgo leaves dyed in golden hues. The branches of the trees stretch powerfully, conveying the vitality of life, while the contrast between the shadows in the foreground and the light in the background creates beautiful depth. It's a scene that feels nostalgic yet reminds us of the preciousness of the present moment, much like a 'diary'.

Shadow and Light

A shot capturing light and shadow piercing through the silence, like a scene from a story. A single beam of light emerges in the darkness, and the silhouette of a person walking along it is striking. Though the figure is small, their stride and shadow convey strength, inviting us to imagine the story that awaits ahead.

This photo captures the architecture of Tadao Ando, noted as the first solo trip. I remember regretting not bringing a camera on my first solo trip. The photographer, supported by family, was fortunate to take a camera along. May this experience inspire the photographer for future journeys.
