プナルウの黒砂海岸を訪れたとき、遠くで椰子の実が落ちる音がしました。見ると、人が登って枯れた葉や椰子の実を落としているではありませんか。あわてて写真を撮ったのですが、遠すぎてかろうじて足が写っているだけの写真になってしまいました。(この写真は大きくトリミングをしています)When I visited Punalu'u black sand beach, I heard sound of falling coconuts. To see the direction a man climbed up a tall palm tree and cut off dead frond and coconuts. I took picture in a flurry, but it came out badly, only feet in the picture, as it was so far. (this picture is trimmed very big)
車に望遠レンズを取りに行ったのですが、そのときはもう降りてしまいました。I went back to my car to take telephoto lens and set it camera, but it was too late, he had already climbed down the tree.
恐る恐る写真を撮らせてくれと頼んだら、とても親切にポーズを作ってくれました。
Timidly I asked to him to take his pictures, he kindly accepted and made such pose for a pictures.
どうやって登るのかと聞いたところ、ベルトを幹にかけ、スパイクを履いて登るのだと教えてくれて、それをみせてくれました。
And I also asked him how to climb such high trees, he taught me that he ties his body and trunk with this belt loosely and take spike shoes and creep up his body by using hands and feet.前に載せたブログで、ある人が教えてくれたやり方どおりです。(サモア人かどうかは聞き忘れました）なぜかこの写真、道具でなく顔が中心に撮れてしまいました。 とても友好的な人でした。
It is a same way some one taught me and I wrote it previous blog. ( but I forgot to aske him he is Samoan or not.) Somehow, I took his face mainly not his tools. Anyway he was very friendly so I liked him very much.
