Weekly Photo Challenge: Abstract

201604-402Nature always shows us wonderful shapes unexpectedly. Pictures were taken at the backyard of my house, just 10 seconds to walk. Though it is said that natural shapes are fractal and these are looked so, no difficult words are needed I suppose.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Dinnertime

It’s time for dinner.
To eat something is a very basic and instinctive action but, when we talk about “dinner”, we don’t focus on this common routine probably because we expect something different from a daily life in the word.
The boat having red lanterns is a restaurant called “Yakata-bune (屋形船)”, literally a roofed pleasure boat in Japanese, where you could have a small party with tempura and so on. Obviously it is not low-priced but it’s worth a try.
BTW, I added two other photos taken in France. It’s similar view, isn’t it?

Monochrome Monday: Future

201604-221From lipsticks to locomotives, Raymond Loewy might be one of the origins of retro-future design. Of course, he must not have agreed with me if he could read this post. However, I think, his design has been and will be somehow contemporary.

口紅から蒸気機関車まで、レイモンド・ローウィはレトロフューチャの原点の一人だろう。もちろん、このポストを読んだら違うと言ったに違いない。だが、思うのである。そのデザインは、これまでもこれからも、どこか現代的であると。
