Unproductive Weekend

Unproductive Weekend

I had an unproductive weekend, sort of.  Netflix just launched in Japan last week.   It's a little hard to say that since I worked on Saturday but stay with me.   As someone who tries to be as productive as possible at all times it's embarrassing to say I binged watched the entire first season of Orange is the new Black since the middle of last week.   The show is fantastic.   Glad I have two more seasons ahead of me.   Sadly I don't think my Netflix Japan account will work while I am traveling. I have been shooting my A7S recently.   I want to shoot more video with it for my YouTube channel when I get some time.  I need to figure out how to make it part of my routine.  I have so much traveling some up I should be able to get some good shooting in.  I head to Sydney tomorrow.   Jakarata the following week.   Then I have trips to Mumbai, Hong Kong, Taipei, Jakarta again, Ho Chi Min City, Singapore and San Francisco.

Today's Configuration: Sony A7S with a Summicron 28mm f/2.0 and a Summilux 50mm f/1.4

I am growing to really like the bokeh on the Summilux 50mm f/14.   It's different than the Noctilux but a much more portable lens.

It's amazing these two spaces could generate up to $250K a year.   Even with 50-60% occupancy you are still making $150K a year.   I always see these and wonder if they are a good investment.  I guess it would depend on the mortgage, franchises cost and maintenance fees.   There are some spaces you go by and they are 100% full all the time.   I shot this on a Saturday morning in Roppongi so these were not but I image these are completely full during the week.

I had a pretty busy weekend with work on Saturday and some family things on Sunday.  I didn't get to shoot my local matsuri this year but that's OK as I shot it the past few years.

I was really in the mood for some unhealthy food.   Tired end to a long week as I worked Saturday this week.   I was thinking ramen but instead when for mabudofu...

Anyone who reads my Instagram knows how much I love mabudofu!  I'm pretty sure it's the best food ever created.  If you haven't had before it's tofu in a spicy sauce with pork (and sometimes only vegetables).
