折り友のみなさま

こんにちは。

鷹乃学習（たかすなわちわざをならう）の候、いかがお過ごしですか？

Dear Origami Friend,

How are you doing?

It's 第三十三候　鷹乃学習,　The 33 climate / Taka Sunawachi Waza wo Narau – Hawks Learn to Fly, #33 OF 72 SEASONS in Japan.

何年か前に近所で鷹を見たことがある。

林の側道ですれ違う人が上ばかり見ていて、なんだろうと見上げたら、高い木のてっぺんに突き出た枝に留まってた。

I remember that I saw a hawk topping a tall tree nearby several years ago.

How did I find it? Because I realized the people around me gazing at a specific point in the sky and followed them.

I conducted an origami class for the local community on Jul 9.

We shared smiles with folding TFO, Shark, and Ninja.

＊＊＊　感動の折紙　＊＊＊

神谷哲史さんのサメを折った。凄すぎ。感激。

--- Impressive Origami ---

A great white shark, designed by Satoshi Kamiya, is found in the book "Origami Aquarium."

This model is really well designed.

It's not so complicated to fold: just around 120 steps (Is it too much? 12 steps for the origami crane.), yet it is a fantastic result.
