Special Selection: "I struggled until the very end to decide on the theme of light."
I struggled with the theme of light for this project until the very end.
Is it the light inside me, or the light that the photograph reveals?
Subjective, objective...
And I ultimately decided on the latter.
Until now, I have been taking pictures with my daughters just for fun, going by instinct, but these instincts were also uncertain and lacked knowledge.
However, I am so immersed in taking photos that my daily motivation depends on the outcome of the photos, so last year (2020) I began to study on my own how to turn my imagination into reality and what makes a good photo.
And learning at the Manazashi Photo Club.
The fact that I was given the opportunity to take part in a photo contest is a ray of hope for me, but I also thought that I might as well try and put what I learned last year into a work of art, which is why I chose it.

It was as if a gentle light was enveloping us both, and it made me feel very happy.
