Chasing dragonflies

20080922 Pad 001

71/365: Sept 22. Keiko. Again. Cause she brightens my day so.

72/365: Sept 23. I've been working late a lot, this is the joyful sight that greets me every time I get to Shibuya station for those last few trains of the night. Sardine-can express.

73/365: Sept 24. Another fabulous episode of Dr Sketchy's Tokyo, this time starring the incredible burlesque/belly dancer Safi who is - by far - the most powerful and sexy Japanese woman I have ever had the chance to photograph. I picked this pick to share in the 365 project because of the expressions on the sketchers in the background. Priceless. There are a ton more which I am gonna try to finish editing tonight, but in the meantime you can catch a few more over at my photography blog.

74/365: Sept 25. My landlord Takesho lives in Okinanawa while his wife Eiko and kids live on the floor above us. He's awesome fun. Speaks great English and keeps this vintage little yellow honda sports car which he tinkers with for hours on end. He comes back once every six weeks and there is a wild flurry of activity around the house and garden. They own the only electric lawnmower I have ever seen.

75/365: Sept 26. Spent the day working in the Shibuya office, and Dj James came by to get some work done too. This is the software he uses to do live MP3 mixing when he's doing a set at a party. Scratch. Yo.

20080927 Pad 001

76/365: Sept 27. My friends Jane and Daisuke had their Japanese wedding today. They've actually been married a year now, the first little ceremony in Melbourne. His J-family really wanted a real wedding ceremony here in Tokyo so they went all out and Jane got all dolled up in a traditional kimono and wig and head scarfy thing and we all took taxi's out to a shrine where their union was blessed by the Buddhist priests. I was the official photographer for the day and am absolutely delighted with the photos. It was a beautiful day, and the nijikai led to some fairly epic debauchery with more nihonshu than I have done in quite some time. Oh my head the next day! Anyway, I've been stupidly busy so haven't actually gotten around to editing them yet (just this little rush job here for the 365 project) - that's the next task this evening, hope to be finished them in a few days - will share some results on my photography blog... and may post something here too.
