box lunch

got this camera when i got my lens back from the shop a couple of months back.

from the first roll

from the second roll, same day as the first photo.

third roll still waiting to get developed...

浜降祭

my digital shots were crap. had to crop this to 4:3. hope to get something decent from my film shots. will definitely go back to this event (and bring color film next time).

large format

my 2nd shot from a large format camera taken 1 month ago. the 1st shot turned out black.

the balloon man

it's been a while since my last post. been busy again with other stuff (more of was just lazy).

nothing much to say except it's already 2am here and i should be sleeping. maybe i'll write more next time. maybe.

btw, also created a new flickr account for mobile pictures. was kinda surprised at the pictures it (the phone) is able to produce. plus i get location information.

where is grumpy old man?

sighted in ayase a month ago. watching muay thai has adverse effects. actual muay thai pictures to follow. i hope...

you can check jono's pics in the meantime.

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...
