197 / 365 : 大雨
Rain Rain Rain Rain and again Rain....
Couldn't think of a different shot for such a day...
Been busy since the very first morning, double "shift" and they just confirmed me i work tomorrow morning at 9.00 ... Argh!
Whoever decided that weddings were to be held on Sundays surely forgot the importance of the weekend :)
Anyhow, i've been really not happy with my stream lately and especially with my "flickr" behaviour including not finding the time to comment on your photos, my good 365project friends...
Will be back on track, hopefully, from monday!

129/365 White.
And this is how they were the streets today. Full of snow. I love the snow, I love when nobody even to be stepped on, I love your pure white. I also love the gloves, hats and even if sometimes detests them, the cold in your hands. I encanutaría to live in Canada, where the snow was the most normal of the world. Snowy days were made to contemplate the beautiful white covering the entire city.

Y así es como estaban las calles hoy. Llenas de nieve.
Me encanta la nieve, me encantan cuando nadie aun la a pisado, me encanta su blanco puro. También me encantan los guantes, los gorros y aunque a veces los deteste, el frió en las manos. Me encanutaría vivir en Canadá, donde la nieve fuera lo mas normal del mundo. Los días de nieve fueron echos para contemplar el precioso color blanco que cubre toda la ciudad.

Wedding again, yeeey!
Long and tiring day.
Got back home one hour ago, stepped out of my suit, jumped right into my pajama and...
OH NO! I forgot to shoot some details at the wedding for my daily photograph!
Damn, let's see if i can find something...
And there you go, a random shot taken when i was looking for the correct exposure for the initial toast...
Pretty bad huh!?

200 / 365 : FDT : Time Flows™ Style
Happy Face Down Tuesday!!!
First of all, NO, i'm not licking the floor, and my mouth is not even touching it, it's just a perspective effect with the help of the shadow of my chin that makes it look like i'm feeding on the floor :)
I had this shot in mind for a while now and i was waiting for the right moment to pull it out.
Figured out the right moment was today, 200th day of this project, a big big MAJOR milestone for me.
Actually not just 2 times bigger than the 100th day, but many many times more epic.
Why?
Well, except for breathing, drinking, eating and all the basic vital functions, i think i've never done anything else for 200 days straight without interruption. I mean, i never dated a girl for 200 days straight. I never went to school for more than 200 days in a year ( that's exactly the amount of school days in a given year!). I've never practiced a sport for 200 days. I've never played an instrument everyday for 200 days.
See?
It's basically the first time i do something for 200 days straight. And i think it's a great milestone not only for my project, but for my life too. I'm very proud of this moment!
And for the occasion, i wanted to try a long exposure in this very very crowded new underground boulevard here in Sapporo, finally showing Sapporo's people that they have a Faced-Down-Tuesdayer™ among them (i'll never say planker!)
But i stumbled on some problems, with a slower shutter speed you couldn't actually see the blurry movement of people on the background, and with a faster one, i could just get almost still figures.
Especially, people started avoiding the path of the camera, rendering everything more difficult.
But it was funny, try after try, to see people laughing, taking photos at me, pointing fingers ecc ecc.
In the end, HAPPY 200th day to all of my 365project companions!
LEt's get it going guys!
HFDT!

179 / 365 : FDT: Wild Wild Meadows™ Style
Happy Face Down Tuesday!!!!
Today i was seriously excited about having finally the whole free afternoon to find location for my FDTs. Scouted here in there around town and then decided to go in Maruyama Park (which is more like a forest actually), next to Sapporo's Zoo to see what could come out there.
As always, forgot some little details: like for example that if you go in June, in a forest, where there's a creek passing by... you'll have to face THEM.
Yes, bugs. EVERYWHERE. E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E.
They probably sensed me from far away because literally, as soon as i stepped into the park i got greed by swarms and swarms of hungry bugs.
Such a pain to check for exposition, position, geometry of the shot when all you can hear is "bzzzzz" and all you can see is little tiny winged blood-sucking demons on your fisheye lens. (yes, in some shots they were even on my lens.)
Unbelievable. And they were big! The European ones in comparison are like sand grains to pebbles.
But hey, when we hold the Face Down Tuesday's sword, we're ready to face anything in order to achieve THE shot.
Amen!
Ps: One of my FDT photos got chosen for Flickr's Official Blog about planking. Hurray!
HFDT!

180 / 365 : Dusk Lights
Guess who just found out when is the Blue Hour in Sapporo? :)
Last day of school for the week today, yeeey for that!
Sadly though, it will also be the last day of school for some of my friends that are leaving Japan to go back to their countries...
Damn, the good ones are always the first ones to go...
Anyhow, had a loooong and nice walk around Sapporo station, trying to snap some street portrait that turned out to be... well, strange to say the least.
Didn't realize it while i was shooting them but now that i see them on my computer screen... I wonder what i had in mind : my attention was inevitably drown to the same composition for every shot, even in different location and light patterns :)
At one point my photos started to turn to blue. In that precise moment, I knew that i had finally stumbled upon it : the famous blue hour!

187 / 365 : Major Failure
Sometimes, you fail hard.
It's natural, it happens, can't do anything about it.
Still, hurts a little. Hurts not to be at your own standard's level, not being able to keep up to your own expectations...
I had such a busy day, couldn't really find the time to shoot anything decent and, at 10 minutes to midnight, got this lat, very bad, shot.
And i realize that in the last 2 weeks, i haven't really posted anything i like. Damn.
I'll get a good night of sleep and have a fresh start tomorrow.
I hope i'll be able to use this failure as a "memento" for the future.

89/365 Today is the first day of 2014 and I had a family meal. I think that I never get used to family meals of Christmas in which you sufficing to food until you get tired... This is a street of Madrid that always me to like.

Hoy es el primer dia del 2014 y tuve una comida familiar. Creo que nunca me acostumbrare a las comidas familiares de Navidad en las que te atiborras a comida hasta que te cansas...
Esta es una calle de Madrid que siempre me a gustado.
167 / 365 : Overpopulated?
I'm pretty happy to say the exam this morning went well... i think. (too early to say, maybe?)
After those 4 long LOOONG hours in school i decided to focus all my energies into something i really like: being lazy.
So i lazily biked home, cooked myself a lazy meal, had a lazy nap, and with no hurry at all, lazily waited till sunset to stick my nose outside the door, looking for some photos.
Today was the last day of another very popular Matsuri (festival, remember?) here in Sapporo, the Hokkaido Jingu Matsuri.
Basically it's the shrine festival, it lasts 3 days and it's about moving altars from a temple to another, passing through the city core.
Unfortunately, the main event (including the passage in the streets) was yesterday, when i was in my study prison.
So all i could get tonight was a photo-walk in Nakajima Park, full of food stands for the occasion but... damn, i didn't expect it to be so packed!!!
Could barely move inside the slow crowd of people, so this is probably the best shot i could take out of it... meh. Especially since today there were so many girls wearing their colorful Yukata (summer kimono) and i couldn't even frame them in this pictures....
Check out the outtake, for some Yukata awesomeness :)
