Perhaps a little sombre in B&W, Lian; Issa was mourning the loss of his son but yet ..oh and yet ..life is there ..and hope and beauty.. :) ;-)

Ah, I had never expected there would be post about Kobayashi's poem on Ipernity berfore I saw your link :-) I like the Frech translation. It's quite similar in structure with a popular Chinese version - "我知道这世界 / 如朝露般短暂 / 然而，然而“ - not so literally, but touching. While taking this picture, I was discussing Yukio Mishima's The Temple of the Golden Pavilion (金閣寺) with a friend. I guess that's the reason why the picture looks a bit depressing ... but sure it's unfair for the beautiful architecture ;-)

Outstanding shot!
