築地

wandered around tsukiji while waiting for our favorite sushi shop finish their periodic maintenance. this guy was busy hauling some crates to his shop even though the market was closed on this day.

(the colors came out somewhat different than what i see in aperture... should be greener and darker)

梅雨

it's rainy season again. saw this guy looking at something. i don't remember now if he was looking at a map trying to find his way or trying to decide what drink to get in front of a vending machine. (i passed by this place again and saw it was an area map he was looking at.) actually, i first thought his eyes were closed, was drunk and trying to fight off a bad headache, but when i looked closer, he was actually staring at whatever it was in front of him. and i think he knew i took his picture because right after, he lowered his umbrella covering his face.

something i have to keep in mind with the way rangefinders work... while i tried to frame this so that there is space between the guy and that thing to the right, i forgot that what i was viewing is not through the lens (unlike an SLR) thus the shot ending up less than ideal. oh well...
