Mother and baby at Cau May street in Sapa

I took 1st shot at night of 12 Oct.
2nd shot, I took it on the evening before.
I found that those were same mother and baby when I checked it after coming back to Japan.
There must be something attractive about them.
Maybe I'll take them even next time without intention :)

最初の写真は10月12日の夜に撮ったもの。
2番目の写真はその前日の夜に撮ったもの。
帰国してからその母子が同一人物だと気が付いた。
母子には私を惹きつけるものがあった。
今度サパに行った時も、きっとそうとは気付かずにその母子を撮らせてもらっている事だろう。

1日目より2日目の方が、近くて気に入った写真が撮れた事が嬉しい。

She has gone out

My daughter has gone to Canada in August 26, 2013.

Even though, I can smile my wife. Beautiful music touches my heart.

And next day will come same as always.

My wife and I saw our daughter off at the airport.

When we came back to our house, I entered to my study to check pictures of my daughter that I took at the airport.

But hardly had I sat donw in front of my monitor when I heard wailing of my wife.

I found her in dauther's room grasping a bracelet which daughter left.

I saw bared mother's love.

It was tears of patience to leave her daughter for her future.

And it was tears of fragility by which a bit of memory burst a patience.

I had no words to say.

I just hugged my wife.


But such strong grief triggered her asthma attack.

It was a worst one she had ever gotten.

Her face turned pale.

She just repeated "Forgive me"

Then she called her relatives in Africa to say "Forgive me" too.

She felt being going to die.

I called an ambulance.


Thanks to quick first aid in ambulance and appropriate treatment at a hospital, she recovered well.

Now she is fine.

Since that day, she is putting her daughter's watch.

She said "When I watch it, it is not to know what time but to watch itself."

12 days left

My daughter will go to Canada to study from August 26th.
So I have only 12 days for spending time with her.

娘のカナダ留学まで残り僅か12日。
父親の気持ちを慮ってか、最近嫌がらずに写真を撮らせてくれる。
このチャンスにたっぷり写真を撮っておこう。
