555 Down-to-Earth

小さな植物は見下ろし、高い樹木は見上げるのが普通ですが、小さな植物を「見上げる」視点はなかなか面白いものがあります。葉や茎も、普段は漠然と緑色と思って見ているだけですが、近づいて「見上げて」みればそれぞれ独自の形と構造と模様と色を獲得しながら成長しているのです。その様は、高い樹木を見上げて感嘆を覚えることにもひけを取らない面白さです。

Normally we look down small plants and look up high trees. However a chance to "look up" small plants will surely be an interesting experience. Those leaves and stems which we are likely to recognize vaguely as "green thing" are actually growing with nurturing their own unique shape, pattern and color. The sight is as much impressive as the feeling when we look up marvelous trees.
