The Golden Week is a collection of four national holidays within seven days. In combination with well placed weekends, the Golden Week becomes one of Japan's three busiest holiday seasons, besides New Year.

 

The national holidays making up the Golden Week are:

April 29 Showa Day (Showa no hi):

April 29 is the birthday of former Emperor Showa, who died in the year 1989. Until 2006, Greenery Day (see May 4) used to be celebrated on this day.

 

May 3 Constitution Day (Kenpo kinenbi):

On this day in 1947, the new post war constitution was put into effect.

 

May 4 Greenery Day (Midori no hi):

Until 2006, Greenery Day used to be celebrated on April 29, the birthday of former Emperor Showa. The day is dedicated to the environment and nature, because the emperor loved plants and nature.

 

May 5 Children's Day (Kodomo no hi):

The Boy's Festival (Tango no Sekku) is celebrated on this day. Families pray for the health and future success of their sons by hanging up carp streamers and displaying samurai dolls, both symbolizing strength, power and success in life.

I was originally going to buy some sweets and set up a shot but last night's clouds reminded me of some yummy cotton candy.

Hello everyone! I'm back!

The last few weeks were like a really bad roller coaster of emotions for me and so I didn't touch my camera at all, but now I decided that it's time to get off this roller coaster and try new rides.

I want to bloom.

 

I lost 3 weeks in the 52 weeks project that I'm doing ("Let's get creative 2014") so I decided to cheat a little and count this picture as the 4th and 5th week (flowers and hats) so I could catch up (sorry for my laziness)

Thought it was pretty cool to see the leaves all frozen in our birdbath in the front of our house. Looked so pretty!

Week 2 (v 14.0) - right on cue

Theme of The Week - Camera Toss / Kinetic Photography

A cold snap has finally arrived. Being the start of February, that is not so bad. I'm not thrilled with it, but, it could have happened much sooner and more often.

Tetsujin is excited about Roid Week. You should be too!!!

 

I used a reversed 50mm 1.4 mounted in front of the SX-70 to make this shot. Tetsujin is *tiny.* I'm guessing this to be about a 5x macro. It was fun shooting this.

Didn't enjoy this one, and messed up the photos a bit, but this was the least bad.

A venture out during normal daylight hours for this weeks shot, the rape seed fields are coming to an end, but there was still enough colour left for this pic, the MG B GT came along at just the right time, got lucky again :-)

Theme of The Week - Kitchen Close Ups

Had to resort to SW for this week's challenge. Used the Spiralysis tool from the internet to convert a small table clock to this spiral and added just a bit of color toning for interest.

Waited for fluffy clouds and winds to create the long exposure effect I was after here. Taken with B&W ND110 filter with exposure of 30 seconds to blur the clouds. Then spent time dodging and burning each element, its quite addictive!

Well there you have it!

A very busy week combined with the difficult job of finding a natural landscape in Singapore. There are but very few and none close to where I live. Not happy with my image but didn't want to miss a week so it'll have to do. This was taken at a nearby park shortly before sunset today.

This week the girls had to do a motion shot and they were each assigned a neon color to wear. In this photo the japanese writing says "The Color Blue".

Spring! It's really here...Finally! Cherry blossoms and all! Now Mom is placing me in front of every flower tree there is and grabbing pictures. Please tell her to stop.

Shockingly behind with my themes!

I was always one of those annoying kids who had to have their pencils arranged in colour order and I still am.
