Weekly Photo Challenge: Extra, Extra

201406-012locustIt was too hard to take a picture of one baby locust by using my old macro lens; difficult to control a focus, the front lens moves while focusing, no stabilizer and too many extras.  Now I learned the reason why the locust population soars dramatically in summer.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Room

201406-003room“From the four walls that currently surround you”, eh? four walls? Traditionally, walls of a house in humid climate area are not fixed. A line separates a room from another could be a wall and also a kind of sliding door. In other words, a large room could be separated into small rooms flexibly by doors or something like partitions.

201406-005roomThe second photo was taken in a Boeing 777-300.

Interestingly, I found that FOV was similar to the first one but why? One of the reason is, perhaps, in both cases, better usage of available space are always required.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Split-Second Story

201406-001mtSuddenly the summer has come in Yokohama. It was 30 degrees Celsius, 86 degrees Fahrenheit, this afternoon and a wind from south blew like a summer. Needless to say, it’s too early to be. It is the 1st of June. A cold wind from the continent, Siberia is on, sometimes brings a winter to mountains just several hundreds kilometers north from Yokohama.

A photo was a Split-Second Story from an airplane window to tell the truth.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Twist

201405-032I tried to find a picture shows a heavy “Shinto” twisted rope but failed. I missed it somewhere. Literally, twist makes something stronger.

This water pump is not twisted but a kind of twist under the strong sun light. A silhouette gave me an impression like a soldier and the pipe was missing underground.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Work of Art

201405-013An industrial design is a kind of art, sometimes for me. Especially, a mechanical architecture has both complexity and systematic faces inside of it in nature. Today, it is difficult to see the fundamentals when we glance it.

201405-031In spite of difficulties of knowing fundamentals, we sometimes find a sophisticated architecture in it. Perhaps, it is because we always learn from nature.
