Spare room

This lonely tree stands there witnessing beautiful sunsets every day.

Abandoned silo

Or at least, that's what it seems by its look, because I couldn't get much closer because of the surrounding fence.

Circles and squares

I went out looking for circles and squares as a photographic exercise. I could say I scored a basket, didn't I?.

Score!

Middle Ages

There is a medieval market in town for a local festivity, but as I am still somehow shy to photograph people directly, I shoot from the hip instead. I like this lower point of view.

Towers

Dune

Forest

This time it was the Pentax SMC-M 50mm f/1.7 mounted on the NEX-C3 who had the chance to go out for a walk.

Downtown

Downton of big cities are usually a good place for street photography, if you dare to get close enough.

Izakaya

During my holidays I could not bring my mirrorless DSLR camera with me, so I only have pictures of her little sister, the Canon Powershot S95. Here's one taken on the go.

There was a Japanese Summer Festival being held yesterday and a taiko group came to play. There were also some amusements, goldfish catching among them.

Hot sun beating down...

... burning my feet just walking around ♬

It was very hot today, so I was looking for some shade and this is what I found.

Change is a constant in life and, when it comes to cameras, I love trying new things. My beloved GF1 has gone to a new home, allowing me to try a bigger and better sensor inside the box of a NEX C3. Perfect companion for my legacy lenses. I hope this one stays in my trap longer and doesn't escape soon through the window.

After such a long time...

...and I come back with just a few pictures. I know, I am half busy & half lazy but at least I am still here. Some pictures are old ones, some are recent ones.
