I could feel finally that spring has come at last this year though there may still many cold days. Proverbially it is said that there is a cycle of three cold days and four warm days at this time of the year. So I know I had better stay on my guard but I was exhilarated while I was walking outside today. Ever since I got sick I have made it a rule to take a walk regularly every day. I had not liked to go out before and I feel the same way when I am busy writing but I have found strong motive which can make me feel like going out. It is photography. As I began to take photos few months before I had a surgery it is almost one year. I like to take macro photos because I believe God or something like that seems to inhabit in details. It is really surprising that plants, flowers, butterflies and so on look so beautiful seen in macro photos.
These flowers, which we call in Japanese hakobe, are so small that I did not notice at first. I almost trod on them. It took me three days before I could take photos which were satisfactory. While taking photos I can forget everything, even about my disease and the body itself.
