Embrace of dusk with " Evening "　Japanese calligraphy



The flow of the night will have disappeared quietly.
Without a trace. 

Can i meet you again?



The sound of the ripples come from far away.
Expressions always change.

Easily, Coolly, and lonely.



A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Please leave all for a while.

Here is Yokohama.





"暮" (bo, or kureru). It is translated as evening, dusk, sunset, etc.
This character is written by Kanzi, Semi-cursive script. 

　　　Etymology :　Ideogrammic compound
　　　 莫  (not) +  日 (day)

Sun sets is lonely, but peace will appear. 
Gone away, and come.







Night view of Yokohama, have a sense of movement.
Waiting for something to be found.

    春はあけぼのですが、夏はやはり、今も昔も夜が趣ありますね。ホタル同様ライトに惹かれますね。横浜のみなとの夜景、coolly,lonelyで、趣あります。一度訪れてみたいと思っています。

    ２枚目の写真、シャープな構図ですね。横浜が船上の街のようです。３枚目は港の静けさと煌びやかな街の対比が際立っています。「暮」の語源も初めて知りました。面白いですね。

    R - there is something special about night light - it takes away the harsh edges and contrasts of the day. You have captured some beautiful light and images. Thanks. Go well. B

    横浜のような大都会の港でも車も人も途絶える瞬間があるのですね。「暮」というといつも堀口大学の「夕暮れの時はよい時」を思い出します。ビデオも拝見しました。夜空の星に勝る灯はありませんが、あの夜景は人類の英知、一つ一つの明かりの下に過ごす人々の小さな幸せを願います。この灯が消えませんように。

    I enjoyed this night visit to Yokahama, Ruma. I wish I could have visited more places in Japan during my two whirlwind visits. The first time, I spent five days/nights in Toyko and the second, when I went to talk about child forensic interviewing, I was only one night in Tokyo, three in the Kyoto/Osaka area and three in Akita. I especially enjoyed my time in Akita where two nurse colleague from the university there took my friend and I to visit Kakunodate and the beautiful Lake Tazawa.
