I actually had a very wordy, and very serious, post about copyright and the evils of Pinterest planned, but the more i think about it, the more annoyed i get, so i figured i better take a break from that and go to my happy place. Not actually go there, but yeah, you know..
So, Japan it is!
But the Pinterest thing is happening, eventually, cause that shit needs to be dealt with.
Anyway, i've divided the pictures into two posts; one from Fukuyama and one from Tomonoura.
I think i've mentioned before that these look way nicer in person, and that they're a little, ahem, crooked*, so i'll stop making excuses right now and just let the damn pictures speak for themselves!

I'm not sure they'll appreciate the mention, but i still need to say that i wouldn't have had any clue about how to make these if it hadn't been for Allan and our two lab-mentors, Peter Olsen and Ankie Kampmeyer, so thanks for helping us figure this out guys!
Yesterday i sorted through the black and white pile again, and
framed my six favorites, and today i'm gonna hang them on the shop photo
wall.
There are only two of my pictures out there at the moment, one from the pink Holga and one Lomo Fisheye, so six is huge!
We
still haven't had time to drop by the photo geeks and buy new paper, so
haven't been able to develop anymore since i ran out on Monday, so i'm
pretty excited to develop some more and see what else is on there.
Still coming up, black and white photos from the conspiracy lab, part two!
*I know i could have easily fixed that in photoshop, but i wanted to post them the way they are, with no edits other than resizing them, so crooked they are and crooked they will forever be.Labels: Awesomeness, Best buddies, Canon AE-1, Flora Amalie's Tokyo, Food, Japan, Kawaii, Photography, Travel
