#150 Le soir a Shinjuku d'ouest(西新宿夕景)

I like walking along the Koshu boulevard(甲州街道）between Shinjuku station and
the junction with Ymate street(山手通り). Especially after the sunset, the view of the skyscrapers change colors with the back of evening sky which changes the color second by second. At the ground the light of sky get weaker and weaker, the light of town get stronger and stronger. Imagine you take a picture and one minutes later you take one more picture. You would be astonished with the difference of the expression of light of the pictures. It's the magic of evening of NishiShinjuku town. At last you should find in the deep darkness of night that you would have taken more than 36 pictures.

On the counter of a coffee shop at Hatsudai(初台）I watch this floating grass weights thermometer. It shows 24 degrees.

Have you watched the green color on the surface of trunk of zelcoca tree?
If you get near to the moss, you would see a small woods like the world of Nausika. When I find a beautiful dark green on a trunk of tree or on a stone of wall, I can not stop getting near the lenz of RX to them.

I was walking through a lane of Ichigaya(市ヶ谷) one evening.
I caught in the coner of my eye the flicker of caramel brown.
There the showcase was.
There a piece of Apple cake.

#154 poupee de papiere(紙ナプキン人形)

After a short happy time with a piece of apple cake, I found a doll of paper napkin
beside the register.

#155 gateau fraise (苺ケーキＬＡ風)

When my boss opened the box for me, I started laughing.
I could say only "Oh, here I am, in U.S.A!"

There are lots of strawberry fields in Los Angels.
Before the second world war, many Japanese Americans owned the strawberry
farm. Almost of the farms were confiscated by U.S. gouvernment in the war.
(At those days Japanese American have no right to vote.)
Japanese American strawberry farmers had to find new job after the war.
So on the face of old people of Japanese American you would find a kind of sorrow when they watch strawberry field on the road which they drive.
But in front of the strawberry cake, they smile happily.
