Fisherman's Wharf

I love picking up rolls of film from the lab.  I am always pleasantly surprised with images that I forgot I have taken.   Here is a roll I started shooting the day I left for San Francisco and when I went for a walk in Fisherman's Wharf when I landed... There is a big festival in the town I live in Tokyo so I am looking forward to a lot of shooting this weekend.   I love the festivals I am able to find in Jiyugaoka.  I love getting to shoot the Matsuri every year.

Today's configuration: Leica M6-J, Portra 400, Elmar 50mm f/2.8

Fisherman's Wharf...  I love this area of San Francisco.  It seems almost timeless as you walk around here.

I don't eat a lot of fast food but I did hit In-N-Out Burger in a moment of weakness.   All I can say is...it is very good.   Order off the menu - Animal Style.

Surprisingly I don't miss lobster...  the thought of drawn butter really turns me off after I have adjusted to the delicate way Japanese prepare seafood.

I sat and watched the band One Leg Chuck play for a while.  They reminded me of the band Staind.   I ended up buying their CD...very talented.
