Thick gobs of snow pile up on plum blossoms
雪が降っているときは、東京は白黒映画みたいです。最近、この梅の木の夜の写真を載せました。先週の雪が木のかたちを大きく見せました。うるう年の日、２０１２年。
When it snows, it seems as if Tokyo is a city of black and white. Recently I posted a photo of this plum tree at night. Just as the blossoms are peaking, thick gobs of snow magnify the tree’s shape.
Leap Day, 2012.
I remember when it snowed in 2nd grade in SF my teacher pointed out to the class that “just last week we saw the plum blossoms over on Broadway and today it snowed.”
