A few years in the past, Japanese photographer Shinnosuke Uchida who goes by the deal with @SinPictures on Twitter, took a picture of two younger highschool college students of their uniform strolling alongside the streets in Shizuoka. He captioned the tweet, “Miho high school girls have the most photogenic daily lives in Japan.”
The picture appears to be like magnificent with the backdrop of Mt. Fuji and Miho metropolis’s streets. Although Mt. Fuji is probably the most lively factor of the picture, the factor that impressed individuals was how the picture immediately created the sensation of friendship between two younger women. The picture captures the enjoyable and informal enjoyable that mates can have within the leisurely occasions of youth, the moments which might be fully pointless but significant in our recollections.
They’re the kind of moments we’ve much less and fewer of an opportunity to have as we get older and busier. The added bittersweetness is that the image was taken in March, simply earlier than the shut of the Japanese faculty yr. And it’s not unusual for the closest of highschool buddies to separate and fall out after commencement after which transfer on to school or for work.
However, a few weeks in the past, Coming of Age Day was celebrated in Japan, the place individuals who turned 20 the final yr returned to their hometowns to have fun, and Uchida has a brand new picture to point out off.

These are the identical two women in the identical put up on the actual location the place their earlier picture was taken. Instead of uniforms for college, they’re sporting Kimonos which have flowing sleeves, as is the norm for girls attending the ceremony. Their apparel is perhaps completely different, nonetheless. The feeling of being mates is similar as two years in the past.
Others additionally talked about the brand new tempura bowl meals (Tian Jing units to) signal the restaurant they’re sitting subsequent to has put up in addition to that there seems to be extra snow on the summit of Mt. Fuji on the march/faculty uniform photographs versus the January/kimono picture. But, Uchida says that that is at all times the case for Mt. Fuji and that it receives its most dense snowpack throughout April yearly.
Uchida describes the ladies within the footage within the photographs as “models,” although with out specifying whether or not that’s to be understood as “people who earn money by being in photographs” or “people who agreed to be in a photograph.” In this fashion, it’s unclear whether or not they’re highschool acquaintances who reunited for the primary time in a very long time at Coming of Age Day or simply two professionals with a number of expertise. In any case, we’re prone to keep in mind the entire photographs someday quickly, and we’ll get to see them once more after they attain one other of the numerous occasions in our lives.
