Catching Up

Catching Up

I have had a very hectic couple of weeks and today I am catching up with some of my photos over the past few weeks so forgive the randomness... Today’s configuration: Today I shot my Leica M9 and I shot all of my lens: Summilux 21mm f/1.4, Summilux 35mm f/1.4, Noctilux 50mm f/0.95.

今日のカメラ:私のライカM9をつかいます。レンズをぜんぶつかいきりました。

This is one of the neat things about Japan.  This sign basically says to children if you are in trouble you can run to this place for help... they are designated 'shelters' for children along the school routes and if there is a problem they can run to these houses and the owner will protect them and call the police for them.

I swung by the Pink Cow in Shibuya a few weeks ago for a drink and this girl was playing...great music.    A very homey place to hang out if you are looking for a spot.

I also found this place about a 5 minute walk from my house...they sell Stickers and mostly toys from Toy Story and Cars.   I expect to lose a fortune in this store over the next few years...
