A seasonal change.

Its been a busy past few weeks and I haven’t really touched the film camera during this time. Whilst im still having a lot of fun with the GRD3 and shooting digital like a madman, looking back at these couple of rolls from summer, I think it is now time to bring the leica out to play again.

A mix of 3200 and 1600 films on the streets of kagurazaka during the awaodori.

Kinda feeling like the one with the arrow through the head. Feel like i’m being pulled in all directions these days in everything… Need to try focus on one thing at a time, instead of a 1000 at once.

Issey Miyake and a student fashion show. Just 3 things I want to share from 3 of the pictures below that I like.

• Picture 2, the girl in the foreground, didn’t realise at the time, but in the picture her hair is parted in such a way that there is confusion whether she is facing them or the camera (with hair in her face).
• Picture 3, the alignment and odd sense of scale.
• Picture 4, the man on the right just happenly aligned with the person behind, and their mouths have just merged.

I’m currently liking photographs where you need to look a little more in detail and you find other elements which create a strange sense of suprise, or unease.

Thanks to Mr GOM for this one!

Hello 2009.

A couple weeks back, was very lucky to be able to try a Leica M4 in Shinjuku. More pics from this afternoon here
