At night, before going to sleep, turn off the air conditioning.
When I wake up in the morning, the room temperature is 27°C. After opening the window for a while, it drops to 26°C. Such days have been continuing since the first day of autumn. Incidentally, in 2024, Rissh? will be at 9:09 on Wednesday, 7 August. This is the first time at my age that I have learned that there is a moment when it is Rissh?. Usually, it is just a day when I think of it as just autumn on the calendar or a Japanese poem by Toshiyuki Fujiwara.
On the day of this photo shoot, there was a cool breeze from the morning. I left the windows open until nearly noon and let the breeze blow in. If I went outside into the sun, I would have felt the heat, but the humidity would have dropped.
I don't feel like going anywhere, I just envision a vision of a summer resort.
I see the girl's hair dancing in the pleasant breeze.
Earthquakes, wars and bickering.
I wondered if they lived with these thoughts in mind. People from the Taisho era, such as Ryunosuke Akutagawa and Tatsuo Hori, who went to the summer resort of Karuizawa.
夜、眠る前にエアコンを止める。
朝起きて、室温は27℃。窓を開けて暫くすると26℃に下がる。立秋の日から、そんな日が続いている。ちなみに2024年は8月7日水曜日 9:09が立秋とのこと。立秋になる瞬間があることを、この歳になって初めて知った。例年は、あくまでも暦の上の秋に過ぎないとか、藤原敏行の歌を思うくらいの日でしかなかった。
この撮影の日も、朝から涼風。昼近くまで窓を開け放ち、吹き込んでくる風に身を任せていた。外へ出て、日向へ行けば、暑さを感じるのだろうが、湿度は下がっているはずだ。
どこへ出かける気持ちはなく、ただ避暑地の幻を思い描く。
少女の髪が心地よい風に吹かれて舞う様が目に浮かぶ。
地震、戦争、いがみ合いの数々。
こんなことを思いながら生きていたのかなと考えた。避暑地・軽井沢に行き来した芥川龍之介や堀辰雄といった大正時代の人たちは。
