beautiful images, ibara-san. love the autumn subject and the muted colours that goes with it.
Thank you so much Ken-san. It was a lucky random shot, sometimes we find treasures in these quiet moments, don’t you agree? 🙂
Absolutely!
These images are soothing in themselves ❤
Thank you! Sometimes, the simplest things can bring us peace of mind 🙂
It is a person with peace who photographed this leaf and bench; thank you for sharing your peace, Takami. Really beautiful post. 😀
Dear Jet,
Thank you so much for your comment. It means a lot to me.
I’ll admit to feeling a little ‘down’ lately. But so many wonderful artists & genuinely wonderful folks (like yourself) out there have helped me to put things in perspective and keep inspired 🙂
Thanks again,
Takami
Wonderful and yes may we all find peace! Beautiful setting! ☮
Thank you! I really pray for peace too.
Hi, Takami. Many thanks for the follow. And thank you for visiting so many of my posts today. Am honoured. Your photos are stunning.
Hello Tish,
Thank you so much for your ‘likes’ and lovely comment. I’m the one who’s honoured, because your photos made me catch my breath so many times. I look forward to following your writing and photography with great pleasure! 🙂
Warm regards,
Takami
That is so sweet of you, Takami. Lovely to meet you.
Hi, Takami! Just love these photographs — the crystal-clear detail, the colors, the composition. Just looking at them gives me a tranquil, Zen-feeling. Thank you! Sorry I haven’t checked in for a while; I’ve been writing a lot and it’s been hard keeping up with my blogging. But when I come back to photos (and blogs) such as yours, I realize that I’ve been missing something good indeed — so I’ll try to be better in keeping in touch! 🙂 Have a great day!
Hello Deb!
It’s always a pleasure to receive a comment from you. No need to apologise at all! You’re absolutely right, ‘real life’ happens and prevents us from spending time on the computer (which is also a good thing, especially as your latest post mentioned!) and I’ve also been playing ‘catch up’ with comments.
I hope you’re having a great start to the week too!
Warmly,
Takami ❤
Great one there my friend! Takami.. Loved the new way of yours expressing emotions through photos! 🙂
Be Bettr, Stay Bettr!
Your Bud.. Swetank!. 🙂
Thank you, my friend! Your comment means a lot to me, and is so encouraging.
Your buddy,
Takami 🙂
Keep Going! 🙂
Be Bettr, Stay Bettr!
Swetank..
May we all find Peace in this crazy world we live in. These images brought Peace to me, Takami, and I really do thank you. Beautiful, touching, poignant. Your Light shines through. Bless you, my friend. Love, Amy
Thank *you* dear friend! ❤
Your photos and words bring a ray of sunshine to me too.
Let's continue to take care of ourselves and enjoy each moment together with our loved ones 🙂
Love,
Takami
I thank you so much for saying with pictures a little of what I’m feeling today. I didn’t even post anything of my own because the craziness of this world has me so down-hearted. Then I saw your pictures, and I felt the peace they project, and I’m thinking tomorrow might be a better day. Thanks again Takami.
Dear David,
Thank you so very much for your comment. And I’m honoured if this little photo series can offer even a moment of peace – of mind, of the heart. I’ll admit to feeling so downhearted and unmotivated right now. I often wonder, when did we (humanity) get it so wrong? Or has it always been like this, only we’re more aware of it now because of the social media?
Yet, the world continues to turn. So like you, I will keep hope tomorrow might be a better day. Your comment means a lot, thank you.
You’re very welcome my friend, I think it just gets tiring and we don’t realize the effort involved in staying upbeat midst all this chaos. So we take a little time to refresh our spirits, and then we get back to it, because it’s only when we try that it does get any better. So you keep taking those great photos, they probably help more than you know. 🙂
Oh, you’re making me cry! 🙂
🙂
Lovely, and the bench image, in particular, lends a tranquil feel. 🙂
Lindy
Dear Lindy,
Thank you so much for your comment. It was my first time to try this out, and I wasn’t sure how it would be received. But I’m happy I could share my feelings honestly, and even more happy if it can portray a moment of peace and tranquility. I loved your latest squirrel photo, by the way! ❤
Warmly,
Takami
Gorgeous and tranquil photos. So peaceful.
Many thanks Sue ❤
Your photos (and adventures) are always an inspiration.
Beautiful pictures, so peaceful.
Thank you very much. I am honoured you enjoyed them!
Good evening Takami.
Yes, I hope one day we will find peace in this world gone mad ….
We must have hope ….
I love your photos.
I wish you a nice day.
Hervé
Thank you very much Hervé.
I want to keep hope we (humans) can try to make balance with this world and each other. I love your photos very much too.
Warm wishes from rainy Tokyo,
Takami
Friendly Villers Cotterets France.
At home Cold -3 ° C, but with the sun.
thank you very much Takami.
You capture the light so well. It’s as if the camera does not exist between you and the subject.
Thank you Josh. Comments like yours make it all worth it.
I love this side of you ~ the perspective and great use of depth-of-field. Great shots Takami.
Many thanks Randall. I wasn’t sure how this series would be received, but just wanted to share some of my emotions honestly. I’m happy (and relieved) at the positive response, and grateful if it provides other folks with a moment of peace 🙂
Beautiful Takami! I have to agree with the others – so very poetic. There is peace in nature, in the ordinary beauty of life, in spite of our circumstances.
Thank you so much Nico.
I’ll admit to feeling down when making these shots, but perhaps it helped to make an ‘honest’ photograph. And it gave me a moment to appreciate the small moments of peace in nature. Even when everything seems to be cold and dark.
Lovely
Thank you so much Mary. I love your charcoal drawings ❤
Best wishes,
Takami
Thank you Takami – I really appreciate your lovely comment.
Very nice light and texture!
Thank you so much 🙂
I love the details and the texture of the bench !
Thank you, Gin 🙂
Lovely and quite poetic.
Thank you so much Kathy.
I guess in my own way, I’m trying to make sense of all the tragedies that are happening all over the world…
When I look at these pictures it is as if, in the midst of the darkness and shadows, in the midst of the cruelty and chaos, I can hear God whisper – I know…I see…I hear…I care…trust Me.
Your words made me tear up. Thanks again, and God bless ❤
Love the DoF here! Well done Takami!
Many thanks Indah! It’s my first time to try these types of shots, and I’m relieved it’s turning out OK 😉
great shot
Thank you Ruth. With all the incidents happening all over the world, I needed a moment to collect my thoughts, and think of humanity…
Indeed peaceful pictures.
Thank you Olivier-san. I wanted to try something different this time, and also show my emotions a little…
And it did work perfectly. We can feel the difference.
Thanks Olivier-sempai 🙂
