Weekly Photo Challenge: Descent

201411-103The temperature in Yokohama is descending gradually and Winter will come soon. North mountains are going to be white within one month. The blue frag is for a giant slalom of ski and, as you see, it would be difficult to know how it is going. This week, I prepared four pictures saying Descent.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Cover Art

201410-100I imagined what my favorite album was or which kind of music I loved. Wagner? Yes but no, probably cover art should be an image of middle age, which is just ordinary. How about the Latin Jazz?  seems not so good. OK, let’s try to make 60’s with new photos.

Then, I retouched a picture of Coca-Cola track.

 

201410-111Alternative idea was to make a futuristic cover suitable for a book about social issues such like greenhouse gas. It also could be a cover art of 70’s progressive rock.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Refraction

201410-030Three years ago, I had a chance to visit the exhibition of Jean-Michel Othoniel, who is well-know artist and his works are made of glass.

The refracted light was blended in colored glasses and reflected around you.

201410-033As if it was in a cathedral.

Time to time, we are confused and think where we are in the refracted world.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Dreamy

201410-021When you’re traveling, a bad weather makes your way dismal time to time.
Strong wind may screw up your schedule or rain may discourage your challenge.

201410-020On the other hand, the rain clean up dusty air and shows a dreamy scenery.
If you want, of course, you would see even a perfect rainbow.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Signs

201410-010At first, I got interested in the shape and color of this sign. It was a hot summer day, sky was blue and the metal was shining. The sign was looked like a part of summer.  Then, I took this picture with my iPhone but what was this?
It said “Lead Hook” which meant that you could hang a leash of your dog on the hook. Looking into the sign, its shape was a face of a dog. Interestingly, the sign said in Japanese, “please do not use for a big dog”.

I posted similar pictures. Let me do it again because I like this signs as a symbolic view of busy city.

The last one is a handmade road sign. I think it was a good combination of green and a sign.

All the pictures were taken with iPhone 5.
