Today’s photos were all taken with the new Hasselblad medium format camera.

At the Cleveland Museum of Art, I spy a face (or at least a head…) in the window.

More from outside of the museum.

Winter Light series continues with this camera as well :)

…a day late. Sorry. Was out at the wine bar too late on Friday and was in no mental state to edit photos or upload them…

So. Continuing with my unofficial Winter Light series, here are 3 in digital.

The frost was beautiful in the morning light. So I went outside in my shorts and tshirt freezing my ass off to take these shots in my backyard…

It’s been an odd winter…but even though there is no snow on the ground here, there was definitely frost.

More shots with the new instant test film. I need to shoot something other than skies and trees though…

A day late…sorry. Was really really out of it yesterday…

Burger King is trying to make another comeback in Japan after it pulled out a few years ago. Though this is in a major area in Shinjuku, it seems it is more popular with foreign visitors than locals…

Finishing off the first month of the new year with more random snaps from Japan.

Another snapshot from Jiyugaoka. Just a narrow street near the station. There’s a Japanese bar with signs for grilled squid (good with beer), then next to it is a Turkish place selling kebabs (not shish kebabs) and then in the background, a Torii gate. Tokyo is far more international than most people think. :)

A shot of a very packed stationary store. I liked the ad on the door. The “This is a Pen” is a joke that really only Japanese will get. I don’t think it’s like this now but, traditionally, the first sentence you learned when you were learning English in school in Japan was “This is a Pen”. So it’s funny. To us. Ha.

I got into the front car on the train ride back and they actually had one of the shades up. They almost never d due to the reflection annoying the driver. So I took some photos and hey, look…there I am…looking tired…
