Special Selection "Hitomi"

Winner of the Manazashi Photo Club's second photo contest "Manazashi"
This kid won't even let me go to the bathroom.
Someday I'll turn my back
I wonder if one day I'll stop replying.

I wish time would stop.
I think that every day.

I need you so much.
So much
The one who looks straight at me is
I guess it's just for now.
If you think you're still a baby
It grows big in the blink of an eye.

I like to take a step back and take photos.
Since joining the Manazashi Photo Club,

More and more I started to want to take pictures from up close.
These clear eyes and soft hair
Smooth skin, small hands and feet
Because I want to remember everything.

Because time doesn't stop
I'll take some photos today too.
Everything you need to remember
To leave it for my future self.

Comment from Advisor

It's sad, I want to remember it too, I want to leave everything behind. I felt like I was able to overlap my own feelings with Miwako's, and I was really moved. This may be the only time I can capture this expression from this distance. It made me want to keep taking pictures with that feeling in mind. Thank you.
