Bottles

This isn’t even my photo. Sure, it was taken with my camera, from about a foot to my left, but I didn’t direct it, frame it, shoot it or compose it in any way shape or form. That credit goes to my girlfriend. I have, however, posted it to my blog. Because I like it so damn much.

I guess it’s possible I didn’t take this picture. Sometimes, I pass my camera around, and my girlfriend or other people snap a few shots. I think this particular night (also the Yakuza fight night) was one of those where my girlfriend was shooting a lot. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the photo, and check out her blog, Kurumi Photo.

Again, shortly before the yakuza fight, my friends and I were bar hopping, and we finally found our way back to a bar that’s location I had thought lost forever: secret bar. Another foreign friend in Kyoto a couple of years ago had taken me to a bar so dark, then entire thing was lit with fewer than 10 candles (not that it was that big, anyway). He called it “secret bar”, but after I saw a sign outside, I ended up calling it “Downbeat”, which seemed to fit. I was wrong. Apparently, the bar has no name, and is still dark as ever. Please enjoy a picture of one of their candles.

Apparently I shot this with the Lensbaby. I had forgotten until I went to look up the exif data and it didn’t have anything for aperture.

Sorry for the unexplained, week-long absence. This week was silver week, which afforded me the opportunity to not take many good photos, but visit Himeiji Castle, Universal Studios Japan and get in a fight with Yakuza (a few hours after this picture was taken, actually). Regular updates will continue!
