Dec. 25, 2023
From an early age, a warrior learns to distinguish between the bravery of a litterateur and the true courage of "great valor". Mothers send their children to expose their bodies to the cold winter weather and to see the horrific sights of execution sites. My father teaches me how to use a sword from an early age. He starts with a wooden sword, and when he attains the age of 15, he is allowed to carry a serious weapon. At that time, he becomes aware of his self-respect and his sense of responsibility for carrying a dangerous weapon in the street. 武士は幼少のころから匹夫の勇と、真の勇気「大勇」の区別を学びます。 母は冬の寒空の中、肉体をさらさせたり、処刑場の恐ろしい光景を見に行かせます。 父は幼少のころから刀の使い方を教えます。 まずは木刀から始まり、15歳で元服すると真剣を携帯しての行動を許します。 その時、彼が自覚するのは自尊心と、危険な凶器を往来で持ち歩くことに対する責任感です。

I photographed the Tokyo Sky Tree and Tokyo Mizumachi from the Pillow Bridge to the Kitajuma River. There are many people who take pictures of the Genmori Bridge because the sidewalk is wider and closer to the Sky Tree, but in fact, the Pillow Bridge is easier to get into the angle of view of the entire Sky Tree and it is easier to take a picture with reflection. If you go to Pillow Bridge, you can enjoy this kind of scenery at any time.

It is a nationally designated important cultural property in the Imperial Palace, the former Edo Castle Outer Sakurada Gate. The outer Sakurada Gate is famous for the "Sakurada Gate Outside Incident" of the assassination of Naoya Ii by the ronin of the Mito clan in 1860. This incident was caused by the suppression carried out by the shogunate, the "Great Prison of Ansei". After the incident, the authority of the shogunate was lost, and the Edo period, which lasted 265 years, came to an end.

It is a Japanese antelope that I met when I went to Okutama Town, Tokyo. He gave me a look at the camera, so I took a picture. The Japanese antelope is a herbivorous mammal endemic to Japan that lives in Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu, excluding Hokkaido and the Chugoku region. The scientific name is Capricornis crispus, which belongs to the subfamily Goats of the artiodactyl bovine family. Due to overfishing, the number has decreased, and it was designated as a special natural monument of Japan in Showa 30. From the summer of 2022 to the fall of 2023, I went to Okutama about four times, and I was able to meet two of them, so I think there is a good chance that we will meet.
