「鹿児島」　藤原敦　

「Kagoshima」  Atsushi Fujiwara

---

祖父が残した一冊の歌集をきっかけに鹿児島の地を踏んだ。
生涯を教師として生き、白秋の教えを受け歌人としても生
きた祖父が詠んだ美しき戦前の鹿児島。
変わらぬ自然と裏腹に疲弊した地方都市の姿、人々の暮らし。

カメラは今の鹿児島をそのまま記録する。

I set my foot on the land of Kagoshima triggered by one poem
book left by my grandfather.
Beautiful Kagoshima before the War captured by the poem of
my grandfather who lived all his life as a school teacher and
also as a poet under Hakushu.
Nature has not changed, but on the contrary, the impression
of this regional city and lives of people are quite exhausted.
Camera captures Kagoshima of today as it is.
