A bride with traditional dress in a traditional old house

We were asked to take pictures in bridal costume by one of our guests the other day. Her request was to dress a traditional Japanese kimono specially designed for bridal dress. That is so called Shiromuku which means ‘‘pure white’’ without uncleanness. This time, I was in charge of selecting the kimono and to assist her for wearing them in a straight manner.

An old traditional house in country side was chosen as a location. The real old house realized more vivid feeling of appearance than the virtual set in the photographing salon. Her shape in Shiromuku was just so beautiful and fixed my eyes on it.

I appreciated attending such photographing at the special location which gave me a good chance to study something new.

A small world surrounding me

I feel that the community surrounding me has been widely spreading day by day, every month in this year. That is conformed by many people from various fields like mass-media, publishing business and so on. The opening of English version web-site contributes to widening such community and it gives me a fanciful feeling like making a voyage.

Talking to those people gives me a lot of new idea and good thought for my next activity.
Furthermore, it is very interesting and useful for my life to listen to each person’s talk.
Appreciating resent development of communication network, I am very happy filled by such feeling in these days.
