01/01/2011: #creative366project on Flickr.
Happy new year! I have started 366 project with more than 200 people on Google+ today. And this is the first shot for the project. The tool on my right leg. I have no idea what it is officially called. I’m waiting for the operation that is for connecting my broken bones.
Anyway, for this shot, I go over to the end of the hallway on my wheelchair, placed my leg on the window frame, and shot this one. My right leg has been dominated by the tool, but I’m pretending to dominate the city :p
For a while, I’m posting SOOC files except for adding the black bars. Yes, now I have GIMP on the company’s PC I’m using, but I’ll stick to the original idea. No post-processing.

269/2011: 85 times 2 is 175. on Flickr.
Tried a Canon New FD 85mm f1.2. It works as a 170mm on my GH2. The aperture ring was broken so I had to uses the lock of the mount adapter to change apertures. Now I’m waiting it to be fixed. Its lenses and body look really clean and beautiful. Should I buy it?
261/2011: Many of the Butterflies Have Damaged Wings on Flickr.
Maybe because of the typhoon that hit Tokyo recently, or because of the windy days we had, many of the butterflies have damaged wings. I found this butterfly’s wings were not perfect. You can’t see it from this angle though. It was so hard to focus on it with an MF lens, so this is the only shot I got right.
258/2011: Not-so-easy (Shooting a) Rider on Flickr.
I bought a Canon FD 100mm f2.8. It works as a 200mm equivalent lens on my camera. I went to buy a camera filter at Yodobashi Camera in Shinjuku, when I walked around there and tested the lens from 1970’s. There are more shots at Google+: bit.ly/nN6XEE. Please have a look at the album when you have time :)

Mimicking Ability
Visited Tokyo Midtown to see the exhibition, Tokyo Photo 2011 which many galleries exhibit their photographers’ works. Two pieces of my friend’s works are also there. The exhibition is being held through September 25. Before and after the exhibition, I walked around the site and shot some photos. The photos I took during the walk are on Google+: bit.ly/nm1I7J

Yushima Seido, Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo
Yushima Seido is said to be the birthplace of school education. Now a lot of students pay a visit to pray for successes in entrance examinations. The word 合格 which means success is seen on the “ema,” or pictorial offerings. FYI, I captured the reflections on the water in the jar placed at the side of the gate.
Rotating Tokyo
A shot taken with my iPhone while I rotating it.
