134: 05/13/2012: West Shinjuku #creative366project on Flickr.
I bought an old Auto Nikkor 28mm f/3.5 to use with a Lensbaby Tilt Transformer. Having a lot of fun.
レンズベビーのティルトトランスフォーマーで遊ぶため、ニコンの1960年代の古いレンズを購入しました。楽しいです。
118: 04/27/2012: 30-Minute Walk in a Local Town on Flickr.
I try to take a walk as long as I can every day. It’s part of the rehabilitation. I need to strengthen my leg muscles that were damaged at the accident. Today, I didn’t have time to walk during the lunch time, so I walked home without taking a train. These are the fragments of the town I saw while walking in the drizzle.
03/01/2012: West Shinjuku Fish-eye #creative366project on Flickr.
I wanted to shoot this view with a fish-eye. I had shot an image with my Panasonic LX3 two years ago, but I couldn’t capture the entire view of the buildings. See how the view looks different: bit.ly/y6ZCXF
Camera: Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2
Lens: Samyang 7.5mm f/3.5 UMC Fish-eye MFT
02/04/2012: Back Alley #creative366project on Flickr.
As I told you yesterday, the memory card I newly bought didn’t work on the laptop I use at the hospital. So, I decided to visit the same shopping street again today. The distance from here is about 1.5 kilometers but it was still long for me to walk comfortably. It’s a good rehab, though. By the way, the shot here is not taken on the main street. I prefer this kind of back alleys.
Camera: Panasonic Luimx DMC-GH2

Taken in Shimokitazawa, Setagaya.
260/2011: Tokyo Drift on Flickr.
I wrote about my “night cruising shots” on Fuel Your Photography this month: bit.ly/oNPQ9l. After writing it, I decided to do the same thing during the daytime. This is the first test shot. I need to find out the places this works well. To keep the shutter speed a half second, I used Kenko’s ND400 filter that I bought yesterday.
255/2011: Rain Drop Lotus Flower on Flickr.
Last night, the heavy rain prevented me from taking an evening walk. I just wanted to shoot at least one image, I decided to get lower. Worrying that my new Nokton would get wet, I released shutter. The camera was supported with my hands on the wet ground. I shot some, and a rain drop hit the narrow focused area in one of the images. I was singing in the rain.

I need to learn how Nokton 25mm f0.95 performs. Test shot taken in my neighborhood.

245/2011: Yokohama Station Terminal on Flickr.
Ichinohashi Junction, Minato Ward, Tokyo
I made several differently exposed images from a single RAW image. Then I fused them into one again. The Ichinohashi Junction is one of the oldest junction located near Azabu-Juban and Roppongi Hills.
