Some Mamiya 645 Shots

I was going through my 'working' folder in Lightroom and found some Mamiya 645 shots from a walk I took during a walk in Jiyugaoka and Shibuya.   I actually have a bunch of shots in there from my last trip to San Francisco, a series on cones and a shots I have been doing with my 90mm lens. I haven't shot much with my 90mm lens but I have been trying it out on the street lately.  I do like the compression you get with shooting with a longer lens.   I'll post some of those up once I have captured a few more.

I am continuing to shoot with my Mamiya 645 from time to time.  My focusing can be spotting at times but I'll get the hang of it sooner or later.

Today's configuration: TMAX 400 shot on a Mamiya 645

Whenever I walk to Starbacks I cut through this shrine and I always see this kids ride.  I would have loved this as a kid.

Alone in a crowd.  It looks like Apple is in the news again..

There is always some kind of protest going on in Shibuya.   This one was something to do with Okinawa independence.   I didn't even realize this was a topic of debate.  This guy's sign says something like 'people who say Okinawa should be independent is a Chinese spy.'  Hmmm...

Other fun ones I have encountered over the years:

Returning the Emperor as the supreme power in Japan

Anti Nuclear Protests across Tokyo demanding the shutdown of the remaining Nuclear reactors

This one I completely blew the focus...

...and there was a 'No Smoking' protest.  Interesting costume choice for this older guy.   I hate when I am walking behind someone on the streets and I get a huge puff of smoke in my face.  It is very unpleasant.
