Traveler

Not sure why I didn't include this together with the other images in my first post, but here's one more from the #gplus3yearanniversary  photowalk at Haneda.  After this, I'll go back to my Europe shots 🙂

Good night from Tokyo!

Rainbow Bridge, Reflected

This was actually shot during the G+ 3 year anniversary photowalk, but I wanted to put it in its own post, rather than lumping it together with my other shots from that day (^^;

I almost didn't get this shot – just as I was preparing to shoot, it started raining, ruining the reflection in the water.  I started walking away, but after a few seconds, I noticed the rain was already starting to taper off, so I retraced my steps, set my camera as low as I could (without actually dipping it in the water), and fired off a couple frames.  Kinda like how it turned out 🙂

Goodnight from Tokyo!

Never-ending flow of traffic

Went out last Saturday evening to shoot around my neighborhood.  I had planned to do long exposures of trains (which I did take), but this, the unplanned shot, ended up being more interesting for me.  

I probably wouldn't have taken this shot if it weren't for Gioppi tagging me in some #5dayquest  .  I ended up shooting for 5 days in a row, but the weekend shots (in other words, this and Sundays shots) were the best, which is a bit of a bummer because it means I started out strong but finished on a weak note (^^;

It was still fun though 🙂

Good night from Tokyo!

I rarely share photos that I've taken with a mobile device, but this bright little flower caught my eye while I was out yesterday, and since I only had my tablet with me, that's the camera I used.  🙂

Have a good Monday folks!

Experiments/Abstract

Been in a bit of a creative rut photography-wise lately, so I've been trying to shoot a little differently.  These aren't my usual nature, or street, or even macro images that I typically post.  But in a way they're also all of those.  These were all taken on the street, just focusing on specific portions of things (so in a sense, a "macro" of a building) 😉

And, you could say that they're part of the "nature" that is in Tokyo.  Most people may not care for these types of shots, but I did get some satisfaction from shooting them, and hope that a few others may as well.  🙂

+1 for charity

I know I've posted this image previously – early last year in fact.  However, I've decided to submit it for the +Plus One Collection  project as well 🙂

You can get involved too!  More information regarding this project can be found here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+IvanMakarov/posts/c54Y13Ljif2

The theme this year is "Our World", in the categories "Our Planet", "Our People", and "Our Creations".  This time, the charity being supported is the Samburu Project, which aims to provide clean, safe drinking water in Kenya.  http://www.thesamburuproject.org/

So chip in any way you can!  Submit your images, get the book (or e-book) when it comes out (it's always a fantastic collection of images), or just spread the word.  

Good night from Tokyo!  🙂
