A close-up of some of the leaves. As well as the horse chestnut there are also some oak leaves, in the top right of the picture. As I was photographing these leaves some children came by with their mother and asked what I was doing. I said I wanted to find a conker to add to the picture, but they laughed and said they had already taken them all. I thought children now were more interested in computer games but it seems that they still collect conkers!
葉っぱのクローズアップ。トチノキの葉のほかに、写真右上にあるのはオークの葉です。この写真を撮っているとき、母親に連れられた子供たちが寄ってきて何をしているのか私に尋ねました。トチの実も一緒に写真に入れようと思って探していると答えると、彼らは、もう全部とっちゃったよと笑いました。今の子供たちはコンピュータゲームのほうに興味があるのかと思っていたのですが、今でもトチの実集めをしているようです!
