This was shot with a Nikon L35AF, a point and shoot film camera with a 35mm lens, on Portra 400. I used to to be too intrusive with my photography and felt I was disrupting the emotions of my subjects and thus affecting the scene as a whole. I'm currently forcing myself to not take shots where that becomes an issue. I'm a big fan of Daido Moriyama and this was shot from the hip with my camera by my side, just like he would.
There's many fashionable people in Harajuku and it definitely became my favourite place to hang out in Tokyo.
n the old town of barcelona, a passerby strides along a striking pink backdrop, a vibrant contrast to the muted tones of their attire. the walls whisper tales of the past, with patches and textures speaking to the city's rich tapestry. it's a scene where urban life and colorful history intersect, with each step along the cobbled streets adding to the narrative of this bustling catalan corner.
Brilliant late afternoon reflection from a Strider Club catamaran, Spice Island, Old Portsmouth. Last one of my little set, wish I'd have taken more in this fantastic light.
I captured this scene hand held with my Canon 50mm f1.4 lens with polariser. For a brief period the winter light was purely sublime. Within 15 minutes the moment had passed, Freezing fog descended (you can see it approaching), so glad I managed to bag a few shots.
Fusion blended in Photomatix from a single RAW (loving non Details Enhancer HDR processing right now), plus further enhancements in Photoshop.
Had to find a livery for this drawing and spotted this on someone's Paper Bus model. I think it suits it.

Well, more specifically a Scania Sandwich with a bit of Volvo on top...

This is a sneak peak on my upcoming photo project about the American guitarist and Country Rocker Jon Strider.
Keep your eyes open for more in a not so distance future :)
"The Star Strider is an extremely fast pursuit craft with high maneuverability thanks to it's adjustable wings. Perfect for keeping peace and order!"
I found myself disassembling my LEGO 70351 Clay's Falcon Fighter Blaster set and really liked the colors and the cockpit. So I decided to build something from it. This is the result.
The model has two large adjustable wings on either side, three adjustable fins on top and features two "hidden" spring-loaded shooters underneath. It fits Clay in full armor and has a clip for holding his sword. The model is fairly swooshable and the shooters can be activated while "flying" it with a single hand.
Please let me know what you think and what you like and don't like about it :-)
If you're in the northern hemisphere, you don't need me to tell you that you've just entered the hottest month of the year. This is about the time when the novelty of summer turns into a countdown until the kids are shuffled back into classrooms and the longing for the cold weather holidays begin shaking off the dust in the backs of your minds. Thoughts of the sweater weather of Halloween and the teeth chattering cold of Christmas have probably begun soliciting fantasies of pumpkin spice and hot chocolate.
Here in the southern hemisphere however, the hottest months of the year fall during those cool weather holidays of the north. Halloween, a holiday that's been gaining popularity here in Brazil, happens at a time when spring begins changing hands with summer heat and Christmas is often celebrated by family trips to the coast to participate in Brazil's extraordinarily egalitarian beach culture. We'll look forward to this next Christmas with family gathered in an outdoor space, drinking cold beer and waiting for midnight of the 25th for celebrations and food. We'll comfort dogs afraid of fireworks, develop flip flop tan lines and sleep under fans, strategically placed to cut through the oppressive tropical humidity. Think of this while you begrudgingly chip the frost off of your car window.
I took this photo two years ago on December 25th in the Sao Paulo beach town Praia Grande. This is Christmas in Brazil.
The water strider is a bug that has the ability to walk on water. According to Wikipedia, other names for this bug include:
water bugs, magic bugs, pond skaters, skaters, skimmers, water scooters, water skaters, water skeeters, water skimmers, water skippers, water spiders, or Jesus bugs. What do you call this bug in your part of the world?
This guy was power walking through Amsterdam airport (AMS) whilst checking out the parked aircraft.
