Meiji Shrine (明治神宮 Meiji Jingū?), located in Shibuya, Tokyo, is the Shinto shrine that is dedicated to the deified spirits of Emperor Meiji and his wife, Empress Shōken.[1] When Emperor Meiji died in 1912 and Empress Shōken in 1914, the Japanese people wished to pay their respects to the two influential Japanese figures. It was for this reason that Meiji Shrine was constructed and their souls enshrined on November 1, 1920.[2]
After the emperor's death in 1912, the Japanese Diet passed a resolution to commemorate his role in the Meiji Restoration. An iris garden in an area of Tokyo where Emperor Meiji and Empress Shōken had been known to visit was chosen as the building's location. Construction began in 1915, and the shrine was built in the traditional Nagarezukuri style and is made up primarily of Japanese cypress and copper. It was formally dedicated in 1920, completed in 1921, and its grounds officially finished by 1926.[3]
The original building was destroyed during the Tokyo air raids of World War II. The present iteration of the shrine was funded through a public fund raising effort and completed in October, 1958.[4]
Meiji Shrine was brought into the flow of current events with the 2009 visit of United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. After arriving in Tokyo on her first foreign trip representing the newly elected President Barack Obama, she made her way to this shrine in advance of meetings with Japan's leaders to show her "respect toward history and the culture of Japan." [5]
Meiji Shrine is located in a forest that covers an area of 700,000 square-meters (about 175 acres). This area is covered by an evergreen forest that consists of 120,000 trees of 365 different species, which were donated by people from all parts of Japan when the shrine was established. The forest is visited by many people both as a spiritual home of the people and as a recreation and relaxation area in the center of Tokyo.[2] The shrine itself is comprised of two major areas:
[edit]Naien
The Naien is the inner precinct, which is centered on the shrine buildings and includes a treasure museum that houses articles of the Emperor and Empress. The treasure museum is built in the Azekurazukuri style.
[edit]Gaien
The Gaien is the outer precinct, which includes the Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery that houses a collection of 80 large murals illustrative of the events in the lives of the Emperor and his consort. It also includes a variety of sports facilities, including the National Stadium, and is seen as the center of Japanese sports. It also includes the Meiji Memorial Hall, which was originally used for governmental meetings, including discussions surrounding the drafting of the Meiji Constitution in the late 19th century. Today it is used for Shinto weddings.
This superb panel is illustrative of the innovative approach adopted by the Dutch artist Pieter Saenredam (1597 - 1642), who was the first architecture painter to represent existing buildings using a peculiar new working method. First, he would take measurements and make sketches of buildings on site; these would then be used to produce detailed construction drawings in the studio. Finally, after several years, he would complete the oil paintings, transferring his delicate drawings to the appropriate support. In this way Saenredam sought to create impeccable portraits of buildings, though his quest for perfection occasionally led him to modify reality. The solid, monumental quality of his work is conveyed through simple, bright architectural settings and the use of a palette of pale colours for lighting purposes.

I was playing with ways to get more separation between the wings and background and really liked taking these shots of Christina in a more illustrative direction. Best viewed on black.
A home would be nice; that thing of warmth and safety for a lucky few of which I've heard. A dish of food and a cozy place to sleep. But that is not my lot in life. Icy cold ground is home. My dish of food is whatever I find, or left by the hand of a stranger.
A kindly touch and lap upon which to rest would be a wonderful thing. It is not the gift I have received. My gift is the ability to survive in a hostile world that was not built for me - nor I for it.
My gift is also love, but there is no one to accept it.
Part of the feral cat colony documented at the photo blog, the feral cat rescue project.
After collecting imagery of degraded buildings in Mumbai and Vienna, often over-painted in vivid colours to draw attention away from their age, I began exploring colours and textures in my drawings based on the theme ‘Degraded Textures’. The fine artist and designer, Bernat Klein, has influenced my creative process by observing how he translated textures from his paintings into choices of yarn, colour and patterned woven fabrics. Analysis of collections by companies such as Kvadrat, Bute Fabrics and Création Baumann fuelled my interest in designing a range of current, co-ordinated fabrics that could tastefully combine vivid colours and surface texture contrasts. Throughout my project, I have aimed to translate the theme of painted textures into commercially viable, luxurious textural designs for contemporary interiors. Silk mohair, wool mohair loop and silk bouclé have been particularly effective for translating textures of degrading painted and plastered walls. Working with Scottish mill MYB Textiles, I created sheer madras lace fabrics in large-scale repeat patterns. These have been complemented with jacquard pieces inspired by illustrative, digital interpretations of painted textures.

Its hard to confess when one was wrong.
I had my turn right now..
I had the orders, I was chosen to lead the squad.. I thaught it was a good decision..
We had no chance, we got crushed by all sides..everyone died.. except me.
I survived. But it was just an horrible sanction.
At day, I felt dead. At night.. hell tortured me..
If only, if only..

This I shot with a number of factors that varied from what I normally use, and I loved the result. Key was a gridded octobox camera left. Bare light with standard silver reflector camera left and behind subject. Gridded softbox camera right on subject's axis. I was focused on preserving core shadows between each light, and when I finally worked it out, it was beautiful. All lights were AB800s.
A beautifully designed illustrative lapel badge promoting the Irish Independent newspaper. Made by the renowned badge maker H W Miller, the quality of enamelling and subtle skin colouring of the reader's face is particularly noteworthy. From a graphic design perspective, the overarching composition is incredibly strong and the use of emerald green as a contrasting backdrop underpins the Irish connection.
The Irish Independent (a daily newspaper), was formed in 1905 after succeeding the Daily Irish Independent.
The paper's stance on some key 20th Century events is as follows:
1913 Lockout of Workers: the paper sided unequivocally with the owners and showed open hostility towards the workers and unions.
1916 Easter Rising: the paper described the 'Rising' as 'insane and criminal' and called for the shooting of its leaders.
December 1919: the paper's printing works were destroyed by the IRA during the Irish War of Independence. This was a response against the paper's pro-British and Unionist stance.
1930s Spanish Civil War: the paper's coverage was strongly pro-Franco and criticised the De Valera government for not intervening on behalf of the Spanish Nationalists.
1970s ownership: Paper came under the control of former Heinz president, Tony O'Reilly. During his tenure the paper became increasingly populist on social issues but economically right wing.
Today the paper's format is 'compact' but was, throughout the 20th Century a 'broadsheet' as illustrated on the above badge. It currently has six different supplements, one for each day of the week with its sister paper, the Sunday Independent taking over the remaining day. The Irish Independent and Sunday Independent are located at Talbot Street, Dublin and owned by Independent News & Media.

I get a lot of ideas from some followers on instagram such as @jasonmpeterson, he does a lot of reverse stuff and this is what gave me the idea to do a reflection image like this.
for this image i had to get down underneather this bridge in ipswich while the tide was low so i could get a low enough angle to capture the whole building in, then in post flip it upside which worked really well.

Very illustrative image taken in the public gardens in Downtown Halifax.
Speedlight to camera left, high and down onto Briana. Second strobe to camera right, behind Bri and also high, adding the rim to the shot. Sunlight is providing the heavy backlight. Stobes are dialed to make sure they do not add shadows to the image. I wanted a very light, almost washed out look to Bri in the image... there is almost no color other than her and I wanted a feeling of lightness and also illustration.
Photoshop... oh, a little... heh.
(And you thought I didn't have any more Briana pictures from the trip... hah... you don't know that girl. I have so many good images I can't even begin to post them all. But I will try.)
I think I'm in a kind of illustrative mood, on these days.
