Photos at Kuri

The other day Monday was the second time of the workshop。Happy to be seen as Tanmari the students photos of。 The day before that, I was staring at pictures of visual arts students.。Do not get tired of。 why do you like looking at pictures so much。It's strange to me, but I love it。 The tension of exposing a newly-made photo to others、The gesture of speaking slowly while choosing words、Discoveries from conversations、it all looks beautiful。 it is still、I guess it's because I can touch the seriousness of WS students and students.。 Whether at school, gallery or home、For seriousness, it depends on the desire to face each other seriously。inspired by young energy、I myself push forward。

City theWestern

When walking the neighborhood galleries、There is an old building。 It was like a ruin with no sign of anyone、The entrance door was slightly open, so I tried to break in.。 But well、Why am I so attracted to this guy called Ruins?。 the stairs are dark、Even if I go up from the second floor to the third floor, there is still no sign of people or the feeling of life.。There was a rope on the knob of the door to the room, so I couldn't enter.。Regret。 Thinking of no harvest、I fearfully descended the pitch-black stairs and came out.。that moment、feel the gaze and look back。 Then, for some reason, two husky dogs were looking at me from the window on the third floor.。It's a strange sight。Unintentionally press the shutter。don't think too far ahead、take a picture because it's beautiful。 It doesn't matter if it becomes a work or not、You should shoot what you want to shoot。 I like ruins, but I also like dogs。
