Week 45

The Fan

I've been taking live photos for years here in Tokyo. I usually focus on the band (of course) and try to get in as close as possible, while keeping the shots in focus amongst the either thrashing or half sleeping crowd. Usually depends on the type of band whether or not people dance or chill. This band called SF ,who kind of reminded me of Promise Ring or The Sea and Cake, has a great little emo/dance/pop thing going on and this guy felt the same. It was great to see an enthused fan letting go and not caring that everyone else was just sitting there. Could have been his Premium Malts he was downing, but you can almost feel the music pulsing through him in this little set of images...

Week 43

The Barge Under the Eitai Bridge

I was torn this week on what to post. I got a few strong images of the Eitai Bridge itself and I've always liked it. But as I was walking over it, I notice this approaching barge. I took a quick set of shots as it went under me. I was really really really happy with the horizontal shot. Couldn't have asked for a better timed and framed shot.... (unedited with no cropping!) Makes me wonder why I didn't shoot all horizontally!?






Reminds me of the Universe Kuwait (Tip of the hat to Nate)

Week 42

The Shots I Can't Remember

These we're the last few images of a night of drinks with friends. I barely remember the train ride home. It's interesting how when I saw the images, my memory of the moments instantly came back and I could recall taking the photos. But before that, nothing. I was apparently a bit bolder with the camera, taking shots in the toilet and on the train. So quite a surprising if not revealing set this week.
