Winter haze – Fuyugasumi
"A distant presence quietly unravels."
"Winter haze" is the color of the pale haze that hangs over distant mountains and cityscapes in winter mornings and evenings.
The grey is tinted with blue, reflecting the coolness and stillness of the air.
Unlike spring haze, it is characterized by subdued colors and a dignified transparency.
This color is a hint of distance and time.
It's the color of winter's margins, something invisible that suddenly touches your heart.
Winter haze in daily life
• Morning mist hanging over distant mountains • The color of fog drifting along a winter riverside • The hazy color of the sky seen through a shoji screen
Winter haze is a color that reflects **"quiet presence" and "distant emotions."**
This is a winter gray-blue poem that is in line with the "white space" and "poetic distance" that WABISUKE values.
