Thinking about snow.


(Hokkaido, Olympus pen,late 70's)
Inhabitants in a heavy snow area may have enough to snow. But people in The Temperate Zone, a snow has mystic images.
I am possessed by the sense "Snow is the violence to purify the deplorable society."
Of course, this is only my idea, not common image.
By the way, when historic terrorism 2.26 incident(1936) happened ,Tokyo was covered with heavy snow. The most important person for the opening country to the world, was killed in the snow in front of the gate of Edojo(1860). These incidents have an unique air,and memories are linked with snow image.
