European Diary 2013 (日本語版は英語版に続きます⬇）  ヨーロッパ日記　2013
Day 1 Tokyo to Paris 一日目　東京からパリへ
The day before my trip. I stayed up till very late packing as usual, this is a very bad habit of mine, somehow, I always cannot finish packing till the last minute.  The first thing I must pack is my camera equipment, I must make sure I have everything for in some areas, I could not find a camera store easily. Then it's my cloths, how to carry the minimum cloths for both hot and cold weather.  I learned my lesson in my trip last Spring, it could get very cold and I could not find any thick jacket to buy even inside Paris..This time, I carry my uniqlo light down jacket, hehe, our Japanese magic, super light and warm..( oh, and cheap too).  I must also coordinate the colors,  to make it simple, I always try to bring cloths of the same colorstones...I tell myself, the least I carry, the more I could buy..:),a che... more »

The Four seasons of Japan （日本語↓) 日本の四季
When you're weary 
Feeling small 
When tears are in your eyes 
I will dry them all 
I'm on your side 
When times get rough 
And friends just can't be found 
Like a bridge over troubled water 
I will lay me down 
Like a bridge over troubled water 
I will lay me down 
When you're down and out 
When you're on the street 
When evening falls so hard 
I will comfort you 
I'll take your part 
When darkness comes 
And pain is all around 
Like a bridge over troubled water 
I will lay me down 
Like a bridge over troubled water 
I will lay me down  ~Bridge Over Troubled Water
Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water (Live 1969)

Today is Mother's Day, I could not go to see my mother because she is far away. I know my mother loves purple, so I am posting a purple tree just for her...though she would not see this post, but I still want to thank her for all she did for me, how she taught me to sing and draw, ( though I could not sing well..), how she opened the door to the world of books for me, how she taught me to be respectful to all people regardless of their backgrounds, how she taught me to be independent and stand up for myself, and how she taught me to live a life without regrets. But most of all, I must thank her for letting me choose my own path, she has never told me what subject to choose in school, what career I should take or what guy I should date.  Not only she let me make my own decision, she support me through the years with her strength and wisdom. Today on Mother'... more »

Fuji for all seasons（日本語↓)富士山の四季
I took this photo a few weeks ago, the weather was very good in Tokyo, but by the time I got to Miura Peninsula, I could not see Fuji at all, it was all under the haze.  I was a bit disappointed though  I knew even I have came all the way from Tokyo spending over 2 hours, the chance I could see Fuji is rather slim. I walked over to the other side of the shore and started taking photos of the sea and the rocks...the ocean is for me a never ending fantasy........Just when the sun was setting, Fuji appeared in the far horizon, I wanted to run over to the other side of the beach but it would be too late, so I set my tripod and took pictures behind the rocks to capture this magical moment, then I saw a flight of birds flew by, I quickly changed my shutter speed and took this photo.  After all, my trip was not wasted, I was so happy.  This is anotherlesson life continued to ... more »

Lately, I have been so busy, 24 hours a day is not enough..time seems to pass by so fast..and it's mid May already..I remember when I was a child, I kept counting the days till summer vacation, 60 days was such a long time. Is it because as we grow older, our perception of time changes? or is it just me, who always wish time would stand still....How I wish I could freeze the most beautiful moment in time and hold it in my hands till eternity..maybe, this is why I love photography...

Memories of London ロンドンの思い出
What is your first impression of London? Parliament? Tower of London? The Queen?  Double decker buses? Tower bridge? British Museum and BBC?  Oh, must not forget Peter Pen and Mary Poppins..how nice it is to imagine flying over the sky of London to a land of eternal childhood or to have a nanny like Mary.  Perhaps, London  is more than just a city, it is a land where imaginary journeys starts, a place where dreams meet reality, where one one can always return to a childhood long lost.

孤独の美しさ The beauty of solitude...
Since I was a small child, I have very strong liking and disliking of people and things, my parents can never talk me into doing some things I don't want to do or make me like or dislike someone....I was a stubborn child and very determined in having my own way.  I like real people, honest, sincere, hard working people.  My mother taught me to respect all people, no matter how educated they are or what social spectrum they are from.  She never taught me to dislike anyone, but I dislike fake , phony people or what I considered as opportunist.

I dislike people who place money and fame as the first priority in life while I admire people who work diligently a step at a time toward their goal, even if they should fail, in my mind, they are still my heros. Never think your step istoo small, your achievement too li... more »

"I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death." ~ Leonardo da Vinci
Since I was a small girl, I dislike weakness in myself or in others.  When I fell down playing games, I wanted to climb up immediately, when other kids picked on me or made fun of me, I told myself I don't care at all, I only think they are foolish! I never told my parents any trouble I had in school, I learned at a young age that the only person who can really help me is me.  Later on in life as I encountered problems with my work, I felt very stressful and wanted to cry all the times, but I told myself,there must be a way, I mus... more »

A tale of two cities Tokyo-Yokohama  二つの都市の物語　東京−横浜
I remember when I was small, every time when I sat in my father's car as he drove through the city at night, I would stare at all the city's lights and wondered who live there and what stories there are behind each window.  Perhaps, I like to think too much as a child, therefore I love to read philosophy books rather than fictions at a young age, always wondering  the meaning of our existence in this world, something I have spent years searching for but not knowing the answer is always within me.  

Even now when I look at the lights of the city, I am still fascinated by the thought that I am looking at the windows to so many untold stories, some are happy and some are sad,  we never know where our paths may lead us,  sadness andhappiness are only threads that intertwined in the ta... more »

When I was growing up in New York, my father loved to go to Washington DC every year to view  the sakura and in the Autumn, he would drive to New England to see the changing colors of the leaves. As a child, I had little interest in hanami or red leaves, I thought it was more cool to hang out with my friends than spend the weekend with Daddy..It was only after I grew up and began to take photos that I started to appreciate the change of season. Now every spring I could not wait till the sakura blooms and every Autumn, I want to do nothing but to take photo of the beautiful red and yellow leaves.  Do we change because we grow older or do we change because of difficult  experiences in life? I do not know...I only wish I knew then what I know now, that the most beautiful things in life are the simplest things..

Now every year, when Igo to the park to take... more »

“I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things; then I shall be one of those who make things beautiful” ~Friedrich Nietzsche 
Sometimes I think it is so amazing, we live in a world full of choices, it is up to us to make the decision how we would like to live our lives.  When we are unhappy, the first question we should ask is what we could do to change the situation, to make ourselves happier.  Of course, there are people and things we could not change, but one thing we could always change is ourselves, how we see the world and interact with others..and that could make a hugh difference in our lives.

I guess now the sakura is blooming in Fukushima again, this morning I saw in the news a picture of some residents looking through a metal fence with sakura blooming on the other side to perhaps a home they could not return. Two years have past by since the earthquake and yet many issues are still not resolved, many lives have been changed forever.  For those of us far away in Tokyo, do we also worry that this might happen to us someday? and what could we do to help ourselves and our friends?  Maybe as my favorite author, Isak Dinesen wrote: "God made the world round so we could not see too far down the road."福島で桜がまた咲いている頃だと思います、今朝、金属のフェン... more »

Vincent van Gough wrote "I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.  " Vincent painted all those beautiful paintings of the nights including the famous Starry Starry Night but they said he was insane! How could anyone who was so sensitive  and could create such beautiful arts be crazy? Perhaps he was not crazy, it was only the world who could not understand him...perhaps, "this world was never meant for one as beautiful as he..."
Do you sometimes feel like you could be crazy too?  or are we the only same people living in a mad mad world?

You and I maybe very different, we may come from two different worlds, yet we could be good friends.  We could share our laughters, our tears, our success, and our failures, we could chat the night away but we also need no word to see through into each other's heart.
