Photographer's Note
I was taking a walk in the garden which is near the house usual. The garden here consists of two, a Western garden and a Japanese landscape garden. After taking a walk in a Japanese garden and feeding a duck in a pond, I has returned to the place with a European-style building. The leaf of the surrounding grove fell and had become very wintery nature. This building will be completed in 1917, and appearance is the style of the Renaissance. The building frame of brick is covered with stone blocks. The first floor is reception space, such as a dining-room, a billiard parlor, and a smoking room, and the second floor is space with privacy, such as a sitting-room. Now, general public presentation is carried out. Exactly, there were two women who wore Japanese clothes in the room for refreshments of the first floor. Probably they will drink and are having a pleasant chat. Soft afternoon light shines on the room over the curtain of a race through a window with a white window frame.

Greetings Mikio. A lovely mood fills this photo with its gentle colours and the soft winter light coming through the curtained window and falling on the woman on the left. Harmonious and peaceful atmosphere. Best wishes to you for 2011. Klaudio.

Hello Mikio,
There is a strange and beautiful atmosphere in this photo. Peeking through the window at the two women it is like the silence of the photo has become very obvious. We can only imagine their voicces and maybe laughter, but as distant observers we see them like in a silent movie. The mild colours and soft contrasts make the composition very beautiful.
Kind regards,
Gert
