Time

• Photographer
  Kiyoshi Karimizu

Strongly lit candles shine through the darkness, their warm light spreading throughout the space. An old clock still quietly ticks away the passage of time after so many years, its hands moving ceaselessly from the past to the present. A withered rose in the hand has lost its once vivid beauty and quietly speaks of the transience of time gone by. On the other hand, the powerful burning candle flame symbolises the momentary brilliance of a person's short life.

I am a Japanese street photographer. I'm shooting my town, street, and casual days. Sometimes I also take still lifes.
