Multiple exposure and Reflection photography

Multiple exposure method had been invited while silver salt film period because it is relatively easy to do. SLR camera could be done it by pushing down reload button and it was possible to repeat unlimitedly.

As for a digital mirrorless camera, the method is invited without difficulty, photographers could check each shot as he or she does.

If I complain about this method, I have never come across with the multiple exposure work that has no unnaturalness.

There is a huge gap between the richness of human sensibility and the ability to reproduce it.

Consequently, these are the reasons why I prefer "Reflection photography" to "Multiple exposure method".

A political starn in Kansai area

Now, US military power in Japan land exists not only for Asian strategy but mainly for suppression of Japanese revolutionary force, time passes since 80 years.

If we correct various political scandals, we will eventually find that the cause is American domination at all.

If they find any unstability in our condition, it is very natural countermeasure to eliminate it with some way, some times murdering.

Consequently, I'm worried that he might be done by some method, he is too active not to be outstanding.

 

Pearl Harbor Memorial Day

December, 07th, 1941 was the day to be celebrated by us as the Pearl Harbor Attack day, 80 years ago we were obliged by US War Strategy.Although the outcome was clear due to the difference in national power of five times, we chose to fight in order to get revenge since we were going to be defeated anyway. This was not something that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. In 1897, Theodore Roosevelt formulated the Orange Plan, a plan to conquer Japan, which was simply executed by his nephew Franklin. We were dragged into a war that was planned long ago. 

The innate character of crushing the weak and satisfying our own desires is clear when we look at the history of the founding of the United States. The shameless people who stand on massacres and plunders are fundamentally different from us, who aim to share and coexist, and there is no way they could ever think of coexisting with the United States. The rag-like Stars and Stripes that was specially ordered from the museum and hung above the head of Foreign Minister Shigemitsu Mamoru at the surrender document signing ceremony was proof that his wish had been fulfilled. The headline on the front page of the New York Times the following morning was, "Finally, there is no obstacle to the Asian strategy that has been a long-cherished wish since the time of Perry." In other words, that Stars and Stripes was the same flag that Perry hoisted on the battleship Susquehanna when he arrived in Uraga.

After the defeat in the last war, our country was forced by the Axis powers to join the Allied Powers, but the enemy country clause is still in place. Our country is made to look like an independent sovereign nation, but in reality, all of the country's operations are under the control of the United States. Everything is communicated and approved at the Japan-US Joint Conference. But what about the Diet? It's all a farce, and whether it's the opposition party or the ruling party, they are being forced to submit by force. As a result, it's no wonder that bad people who are addicted to money and who pander to other countries are born---under the Puppet Government control. Foreign troops have been stationed all over our country from Hokkaido to Kyushu Okinawa, with over 100 military bases in number for as long as 80 years.How will the heavens, who have been watching this grave situation for 2,684 years, interpret this current situation? 

We are a nation that is fundamentally forgiving of others. However, the nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, carried out for the purpose of human experimentation, go beyond this category. 

A nation across the Pacific Ocean has taken the lives of our citizens and cut off the path of genetic transmission, which is the original purpose of human beings. You have no right to do so on a large scale all at once. You must pay for your crime with your life.

In this case, we should retaliate in their own way. Otherwise, the souls of 200,000 of our compatriots who were torn apart in an instant will go unrequited. I don't really want to do it, but Washington DC and New York will be targets - someday. 

Nothing but Fate determines the Path

The face figure has changed into Geriatric suddenly yesterday, how come, my lovely? Her facial feature changed completely like a general finished person especially her eyes. No specific identity is observed in her face as before, no unforgettable charming smile!

I know that the change of appearances is inevitable phenomena for any living things. But, I was so shocked to see that in my wife actually with my own eyes. 

It was yesterday that I saw her face so clearly when she told me, she cannot continue our food logistic preparation and she proposed to be helped by the professional food supplier, actually she has been taking the way for every meal these days. She, who has been a good chef with excellent finger since we had lived together since 40 years.

Circumstantial changes as time passes, so a natural phenomena.

Deeper consideration led me to some conclusion, I myself should be exactly the same condition sooner or later in few years.

My planning to move to some foreign country existing just on the other side of the earth, it must be revolved---I just received new passport yesterday, how come? 

Factors to be obliged changing the direction to live, both internally and externally together at the same time occurs. 

As the proverb says, "Misfortune never comes alone!".

At the deeper part of my mind, I feel some threat of going up to Heaven.

 

Dislike to be controlled by someone else

 

There is nothing that humans can accomplish so perfectly.  Why do we need to fight and compete so much? Instead of wasting your life on trivial things, let's have more fun. 

Time passes quickly, and the present moment will be the past in the next moment. There is a limit to the time we live. We were not born to fight, we should enjoy ourselves. The roots of conflict are insignificant and trivial. We should realize this sooner.

I have no interest in people who flock to money and live their lives driven by their own selfish desires. No matter how widely it is reported every day, it's not interesting at all. All of these incidents are caused by the three basic human desires, and the same things have been repeated for the longest ages, with only the actors, place, and time changing. 

Isn't there something more interesting happening that really moves the heart? Everything is boring and I'm already tired of it.

Human life is not so long that we have to live in a boring and boring environment. 

Why don't we create a world where everyone can live happily without resorting to selfish and low-level underhanded tactics?

Transition of the communication tools

Is it possible to regard the affair in Hyogo recently to be undermining of vested interests? Newspaper companies, TV and Radio, so to speak Media are in severe condition like a hornet's nest-like roar!

Those who believed that the general public could be easily incited are now panicking over the reelection of the Hyogo Prefectural Governor.

From now on, more and more people will gather information through communication tools and instrument that allows them to choose what they want, rather than through one-way broadcasting.

The shallowness of newspaper, radio, and television stories has been exposed. Writers and editors are just writers, not experts on the issues they are reporting. I have no interest in the hustle and bustle of a mob.

We can so easily tell the honest one from the stupid face, manipulated by money. Don't let him appear on the show, just unpleasant at all!

I want to know the "Truth and Facts---of course Scientifically proven Results" by the real researchers who are active in their field, not of low-level amateurs who just talk. From now on, we ordinary people will not be fooled by cleverly orchestrated lies, all the time.

Media Revolution is already established.

 

Nara Ukimi-do

I recommend this place as the second to deer when visiting Nara for sightseeing. 

This is generally speaking that Nara is less brilliant and hustle and bustle compared with Kyoto, but people visited here are able to enjoy some deeper dignity of old Japanese culture in calm and stable atmospheric circumstances.

As an ordinary custom here, the closing time is relatively earlier than common senses.

Small but so convenient buses are going around the main places with the cheapest fee, 100 yen only.

Though the visitors might be disappointed at first, gradually be satisfied and enjoy so much, sure! 

Our treasure in future

Dirty side of Existing Media has been revealed by the revolutionary election of Hyogo Prefectural Gubernatorial Election. Most of the people who made Mr. Saito resigne must have been surprised utmost.

This unprecedented event must have been a turning point to confront evil and correct it. I was completely disappointed with the last Tokyo gubernatorial election. The public opinion was low and there was no integrity at that time.

Although there is no smoke without fire, this time the media all deliberately created black smoke. It is clear that they faked the fact that there was big fire at all. In other words, the Media has proven that they are in danger of falling our people in misleading public opinion.

Consequently, as the conclusion, all the existing Media are not required already now.

People who are selfish and obsessed with money should not become  leaders, never!

I want to create an educational environment that nurtures honest and upright people, not scheming people who get around easily.

Youth is our treasure to prosper next generation!

Spy hunt?

The Nation of Israel was founded by means of gaining lands in the Palestine, one by one gradually at the beginning immediately after WW2, this is the strong will by the Zionist who was sufferred by horrowcoast by Nati Germany.

Is there anyone in our country who have noticed the dangerous phenomena occurring now simmirar with exactly the same as that  ? The difference of the invaders is the race between Jewish and Han Chinese.

They have invaded Our Nation so deeply, Politically and Economically already! 

For good example, Chinese Solar Panels are paved so largely everywhere so secretly, this strategy is the invasion by the neighbor country at all.

But, US Government pretends blindness on this problem, who should countermeasure?

We shall eliminate "Biting flies and pests" thoroughly and wipe out all of the foreign erosions, immediately Now!

Otherwise, our land invasion by China will be completed into "Jaina"!

National Espionage Act must be included in our constitution as Immediate Execution by firing Act, no argument waited on this proposal.

Gaze at those poor fools who betray us flattering to foreign countries and drowning in a pond of money! 

Ashiya Symphony Orchestra 99th regular concert

 

99th Ashiya Symphony Orchestra regular concert was held on last Saturday evening. The immortional lingers after a week has past. The conductor that evening was the youngest person and he revealed his capability utmost. He must memorize and understand the sheet music for every instrument! He could have controlled and withdraw the every potential for all the instruments without sattulation. He is the rising star!! 

The performance of the Nutcracker was also excellent, with a tempo that was conscious of the Ballet dance and was not inferior to that of Valery Gergiev, the principal conductor of the Mariinsky Theatre. It was simply a wonderful performance.

Also time table was well including encore music, The Nutcracker, Act 1, No. 8, Scene 8: Dance of the Pine Forest, In a Winter Pine Forest, the concert ended so punctually 2 minute to the decided time.

In spite of a private orchestra as ASO is, the revel becomes higher and higher every year.

VW Golf 7 GTI periodical maintenance

Periodical replacement parts arrived at hand, these are for Golf 7 GTI with over 10 years old. 

As an unpleasant symptom, too much pitching movement of motor and transaxle in addition the combustion noise and vevelation have increased while ordinary driving. As I had experienced the same phenomenon on Audi A3, my judgement must be to the point.

Liquid-filled anti-vivelation device lasts about 10 years. Parts fee costs 30,000 yen per every 10 years---expensive? 2 pieces of lower mount, especially pendulum dog born arm hinge bushes, round upper and lower, are so troublesome to be replaced, because both of them are installed in aluminum alloy lower main-bar that easily cracks or distorts.

How about fragile and unreliable arm bushes that often appears in Websites? 

There are various factors that cause me anxious, trouble some cooling liquid leak that requires big effort to repair, carbon crogging at intake manifold in relation with direct cylinder injection system---?

Sweaty muscle work would be done on Monday.

Written on Tuesday:

All the engine mount replacement procedures were over at noon today.

Accompanying with heavy pain on muscles and tendon, inevitable work was performed on yesterday and today.

Because the material of motor oil reserver is engineering plastic, there is no way to support the weight of motor, inviting large hanging fixture is observed in Web site, removing under cover it must be difficult to find out the adequate supporting point.

Careful checking and consideration led me some smart way to support from under side utilizing service hall on the under cover. 60 cm socket extension lod was the best helper. Only some adjustment of height by garage jack could establish the work as a matter of fact.

As the conclusion of this work, all the NVH were far improved than before. Straightness became better, the weight of motor and transaxle is well utilized as cancelling weight. In short, the character of Golf 7 GTI was re-obtained by the engine mount replacement procedure.

Though I have ruined physically, stull this work is worth doing.

Natural decay on vehicles is caused by lack of lubrication on moving points and wear and distortion of rubber material.

Vehicle maintenance

When starting the motor of VW Golf GTI, some troublesome memory occurred in my mind. Excessive rotating and vivelating movement, pitching, is discerned every starting first combusting time, this is nothing but the symptom of Engine mount and transmission mount wear at all. It is a very natural phenomena for Golf to have such a tendency, I have experienced Audi A3 ABA 8P-CAX.

Sustained pressure on the cushioning rubber will cause permanent deformation. If it supports the weight of an engine and transmission burdening 200 kg, this would often happen after 10 years. Not only the wear because of ordinary driving use but also continuous natural gravity pressure is the reason.

Troublesome and sweat work is waiting for me, in addition it's replacement parts expenses.

That's what the consumer distribution economy is like.

Genko-an Kyoto

One of the most famous place is Genko-an sutuating Norse-western portion of Kyoto city. The round enlightenment window and the square Window of confusion. I dropped in the place on Wednesday this week. Beautiful Buddhist decoration were scattered everywhere, no inhibbit for photo shooting. Every visitor will not be disappointed to come here with a distance. Smell of Northern Kyoto would so tasty. 400 yen per an adult is reasonable. Public Kyoto City bus is supplied for every 20 minutes. Shijo-Omiya is a suitable Hankyu Railway St.. Middle of November will be favorable for Reddish leaves.

Change of Air

 

I have leaded my life in my country for 75 years in the safest circumstantial condition in the  world, for the sake of the extraordinary alliance with US. But, it sounds good to be an alliance, and we claim to be an independent nation, in reality our government is a puppet regime that is completely dependent on the United States. 

US controls us thoroughly by scattering US Military bases all over our country, over 100 in number. Consequently, we have been put under the control by her politically and economically since our unconditional surrender to the alliancy countries 80 years ago. In addition, we are the only enemy country in the world opposing to the group, it's very strange ---? It's true that the fact is clearly written in the United Nations Charter!

To tell the truth, I'm completely bored this warm water spring condition! Changing of air method in my residual life, it occurred in my mind!

Yes, moving to South America, Peru! This is an indispensable opportunity to change my residual span of life!

Even if I think about myself, I have nothing special left to remember here, almost I have done what I wanted.

15 years younger cousin had some inconvenience, he has been suffering from Cerebrovascular disease that happened harf a year ago here.

His sister who married to a Peruvian wants to take him there, I will accompany with them to take care of him together with them. Not so easy but not so difficult for me, because my former occupation was a healthcare professionals.

Let's see what will happen in very near future.

Our distorted constitution can keep refusing?

Weapons should be used actually in the battles and conflict to be proved their potential, and modification and improvement should be repeated to increase performance. Just designed and used under mock training is not enough to be established as practical weapons.

Those supplied for Our Self Defence Power made in domestic factories should be done enough sufficient research and development---unreasonable constitution prevents to be applied them in the actual combats in foreign countries.

Not a few conflicts occurr in the main points now! Then, is it possible to continue to refuse the proposal by US government??  Export our powers to the necessary fronts in the world is the critical duty if we have indispensable alliancy? 

Our faded-80 year-old constitution is of no use under urgent emergency?

 

Southeast Asia Treaty Organization

The only Asian country that sided with the Allied Powers in the last war. China's presence will not have a big impact, but it may join if the current communist regime changes. Above all, the establishment of a treaty organization will be essential to counter the world's worst gangster nation, the United States. In some cases, it may join with the former Warsaw Pact nations.

The Asian countries that won their independence from the United States, Britain, and other European colonial nations will naturally want our country to be the representative of the new organization.

As the only country in the world to have been attacked by nuclear weapons, it is only natural that we have the right to nuclear armaments. All the surrounding countries are nuclear-armed nations with different regimes. This is only natural, as we are surrounded by them.

Our country has established rocket technology and already has supremacy over the world.

Unless we remove the more than 100 US military bases that are spread out over the whole of Japan, from Hokkaido in the north to Kyushu and Okinawa in the south, unreasonably hidden in the chaos of the defeat, our country cannot be truly independent. 

Yes, dissolution of US-Japan Security Treaty and Pseudo Alliancy!

We are fed up with the current situation, where we are being forced to submit by force and the US is making strange demands.

The replicon vaccine factory under construction in our country must be immediately closed. It is not acceptable to use Japanese citizens as guinea pigs for drugs that modify genes.

Remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki attacked by US as The Nuclear Experiments on Humans! Do we accept the same again?

Isn't it about time We stood up as "The land of Goddes, Japan"?

My old friend

I was impressed by what a high-ranking Israeli official said to me about the current situation in our country, where we are not attacked by any enemy countries. "Japan is like another planet". In Haifa, it is natural for young female soldiers to carry Uzi small machine guns on their shoulders like handbags and to stand guard in the city. They do not know when a bus will explode in a terrorist attack. Rockets and missiles fall from the sky. They are always in a tense state, close to death. 

On the other hand, we have never heard the sound of gunpowder exploding, and have never even seen a handgun. The same goes for our soldiers, who only see them during disaster relief. Also, those who mistakenly believe that the reason we are not invaded from the outside is because of the peace constitution and the non-war constitution shout against the Self-Defense Forces. We only know about war on TV screens, so it is difficult for us to realize how naive and peace-dazed we are, immersed in the warm waters of the Resort health center. 

From Hokkaido in the north to Kyushu and Okinawa in the south, there are more than 100 US military bases for the US's Asia-Middle East strategy, and certainly not for the protection of the Japanese people or Japan. No, if we maintain the US military bases, it may indirectly become like that, but don't get me wrong, the US has no intention of fighting for the Yellow Monkey any more. Our country is merely being conveniently used for the US's world domination, which was already planned when Captain Matthew C. Perry arrived at Shimoda in 1853. 

US invited so horrible method to carry out their original strategy. Our country has been attacked twice by nuclear weapons, so we are the only country in the world that has the right to possess nuclear weapons as a matter of fact. We are not shouting about non-nuclearism because we have suffered terrible things and are scared. The more we shout about it, the more we should understand that we are promoting nuclear powers. We are intentionally educated without being taught modern history. We are completely controlled by external forces. Instead of learning from "Broadcast information" on TV, newspapers, and radio, we should accurately grasp the current situation from "Communication information" and search history not from the past, but from the present to the past. We would naturally come to the same conclusion. 

When we are exposed to low-level, non-stop information, the burden on the brain stem is small, so we are brainwashed without realizing it. As a result, our five senses degenerate. This is what they mean when they say that 100 million people are becoming idiots.

Remember that we cannot battle with them except gaining cunning and sly, not with the concept of Justice like an infant.

Let's look up the blue and peaceful sky, but the same as the center of the biggest Typhoon, don't you think?

Our peace will last?

A year ago, when the conflict in the Gaza Strip flared up again and 40,000 people had already died, I feared Hezbollah's participation. Because if things continued like this, it would develop into a real war. It is completely different from Hamas, the Gaza militia that continues to resist with homemade rockets, and Syria, which supports this organization, a de facto army deployed in southern Lebanon, is supported by Russia. 

However, if Syria as a state launches a missile attack on Israel, it will not end well. Israel, which has vowed to retaliate, will naturally take action, and the conflict will not remain a fight between states, but will develop into a full-scale war. This is bound to happen. The United States and NATO are still secretly supporting Ukraine, even though they have already lost. Exhausted by the rigid situation, they will shift their focus from Ukraine to the two countries, rekindling the de facto US-Russia proxy war. 

People who have fallen into a world of madness will not understand ethics, morality, or social conventions, and will kill each other until the energy of anger and sadness is fully released. Just like us in the past, world peace will be fleeting and ugly massacres will be repeated again. Foreigners are starting to flee Lebanon and Syria. US and other concerned nations' warships are being sent to the shores of Beirut. These places will be flooded with refugees again. 

When will the world learn the concept of so-called sincerity? I sincerely hope that this will not lead to World War 3.
 

A matter for pity and regret

In the world of politics, where all sorts of demons and monsters live, common sense doesn't work. I feel like I lost out by getting my hopes up. It was the same during the Tokyo gubernatorial election, wasn't it? In a world where common sense doesn't work, you never know what will happen with the power of money. This trend is the same worldwide. How do you explain the current situation where people who speak the orthodox lose and cunning people who are good at playing tricks win? That's right, it's to children and the younger generation. I wonder how they explain this in the United States, which preaches about justice. 

If we teach lies to the next generation of young people, the same thing will be repeated with the next generation.

Cluster Amaryllis

Seeking cluster amaryllis as a shooting object, I went to Kameoka as usual but in vain. So, drove I to Daikakuji, also in vain, how come? Too early or too late might be a reason. Judging for a blog by a professional photographer, he said too early in Ohara. 

Golf 7 GTI does not bring any fatigue after 6 hours drive with highway and ordinary road, it's because she is a one of the vest vehicle in the world. 

Modified MD Rokkor 35mm/f2.8 by removing posterior module performs well today. Though Z8 weighs a little bit heavier, it's easy to handle as a reliable instrument. MD Macro Rokkor 50mm/f3.5 was accompanied with me today just because of light weight.

Rokkor-PF 45mm/f1.8 donnored by a rangefinder camera Minolta Skymatic 7 must be tried sooner or later. Letter P means 5 group and F means 6 element as Minolta's classification. 

Talking about the difficulty in the designing because of the mirror box existence, it does not be influenced by it if put on the rangefinder body. This is why I prefer the lenses before the SLR period. Not a few modified lenses are waiting for  me untested. Most of them have been done with SONY E-mount, so they are mounted on Nikon Z mount body without any modification if Z-E mount adapter should be set between them of course without any interchanging electric signals.

Nikon F-mount Micro Nikkor 105mm/f4.0 was obtained from Yahoo auction at 1,750 yen, it was Bingo, like a new! Talking about it, I had often applied it in my professional field accompanying with single small strobo by way of Washington Instrument Company's tool.

No complaint about the image quality for 15 years, but I sold it away few years ago, but some regret remained in my heart. This is why I got it  again. Just a little bit heavier compared with Minolta MD Macro 100mm/f4.0, it must be worth introducing, inner cylindrical construction of brons helicoid construction as a durable goods. The result would be later.

A monster product

SONY announces newly developed medium format image sensor, 53.5X40, a diagonally 64.84 mm (Type 4.1) CMOS active type image sensor with square pixel array and 247.04 M effective pixels. 

We appreciate the biggest effort by the engineers in the field.Do we have a new generation on the image quality, especially in the field of uncountable phenomena, transparency, openness and airiness? 

Quiffy item

A charming lens for Nikon Z mount I advocated in these days?

I said to myself that I should not pay attention on any lens because I have enough already, but a fascinating one appeared with good passionable smell just as if some mischievous Dolly Quiff, perfect & fashionable!

I pretend as if I have no intention to have any relations with such a frivolous and superficial young girl, but I concentrate on her ultimately as a matter of fact. My innate bad habit never be conquered until going up to Heaven.

On the other hand, I have not yet absorbed some experienced datum on 33x44 format in relation with modified lenses, Minolta MD 35/2.8 and Zuiko 9~18 zoom.

The potential in Nikon Z8 on Digital correction of distortion would be checked after the former experimental trials.

Yes, next target would be Nikkor Z 14~30mm/f4.0 S!

Mid-Autumn Moon!

Mid-Autumn Moon, or the Harvest-Moon tonight. Is it possible to observe the same next year? 

Effective Drugs or poisons?

Because so to speak Yellow Monkey as we are Japanese Race, then why is it wrong to utilize us as an experimental trial for Pandemic Vaccination? Our Policy by the Authority is decided to make up mRNA Vaccine in 100 days in Japan, we are the only nation to contribute to the Global Economy by serving  ourselves as the Experimental Animals, Yellow Monkey, Goim. As the last datum show, 80% of us accepted mRNA vaccination already and we are so easy nation to be controlled if only excessive fear were applied. Like a mass sheep group following the sound of guiding bell. We are looked down on enough by the Satan people!

The leader of this movement is Minister Takemi, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. Have we fallen so low that we are being subjected to animal testing by some strong external power? 

Have we lost our dignity as human beings?

Complet occupation by US after WW2, 80 years ago, War Guilt Iｎformation Program is so successful as to make forget us the degnity of  "Goddes Coutry Japan"? 

As Hideki Tojo said before execution, now our country is controlled by the inner power who flatter foreign powers.

A second lieutenant Hiroo Onoda who kept combatting in Lubang island as long as 30 years more after the thrender, he left Japan to Brazil because he could not accept the Society based on Puppet Japanese Government under US controlling.

US Asian controlling strategy since Perry in 1853 looked successful after WW2 US Pacific Front and New York Times told so after Japanese Unconditional Thrender. 

But, this time they are going to do that so fundamentally. 

"Complete Destruction of Japanese Nation"---Genetically would be carried out! 

The factories that produce Replicon RNA Vaccine are under construction in our country!

Only a moment now, only money and myself only, such a stupid and poor idea shall not valid at all.

It's not too late to realize ourselves by opening our half closed eyes!

Evening Thunder

Loud thunder sound suddenly happened this evening with shower, showing the change of air pressure balance, change of seasons, Summer to Autumn, high temperature in the day time will be reduced day by day.

My nephew collapsed due to a cerebrovascular accident, and my sister's niece came back from overseas to look after him. 

What will be going on in future---I might be of help to them?

KITTE Osaka

KITTE Osaka was built up with the concept of fashionable person, items and affairs at the Southern West ward of JR Osaka station. The place was that of former Osaka Central Post, this is why named following the Japanese pronunciation of post stamp. 

So interesting and eye-opening construction as it is at the beginning, similar with Kyoto station, people will be bored sooner or later. Nothing interesting was found in spite of hi-expectations.

Just because of new construction visitor will come, but no further more. We need something more?

Just a glancing for foreign visitors might be prevailing.

Change of policy

Rissyu has already gone, but outside temp is still higher in the daytime.

I resigned all the photo schools I had been participated and I became an applicant of the newer one. The teacher takes us around to some rare rocations six times for half a year but without any comments nor corrections. Though I have been thinking that comments by the professional are worth to be attentioned, repeating the same procedure for several years proved that such study came to be enough for me.

This is why I have chosen this course by a relatively old female photo professional. Repeated experience for a long time must show me some new findings, so I hope.

Preliminary inspection and location scouting for the next shooting led me to Abe Monjy-in the other day, though rainy a bit. 

The second shooting place is Mt. Kasuga Primeval Forest, and I'll try very soon.

The third one is the night scenery at Sakishima Osaka, carrying tripod must be required.

The First Nagisa Park at the Southern East portion of Biwa lake, Chusho-jima and Ishibutai Aska follow respectively. 

Recent affairs

Typhoon #10 with extraordinarily strong power lost the way because balanced high pressure disappeared resulting to straying low pressure bringing just much rainfall. Fortune telling circle is large and displaces it's position unexpectedly, how come? Anyway, we cannot ignore its attitude until this weekend.

Climate changes after every visiting of Typhoon, as usual.

I could obtain the long wanted item through Yahoo Auction at 1,000 yen, Minolta MD Zoom 35~70mm/f3.5 first model that is the same design with Leitz Vario Elmar license production. 

The condition of the lens is unexpectedly favorable as not to require any further  maintenance. The performance will be revealed with the test shooting on Nikon Z8 very soon. 

Donk or Yank?

Tomorrow is the day we were attacked by US with Nuclear Bomb in Hiroshima 80 years ago. In addition, they did the same on Nagasaki.

Hundreds of thousands of our compatriots were burned to death into ashes. Though US president came to Hiroshima few years ago, no apology was done. In the US declassified documents released, the derogatory term "JAP" is used without shame.

We must make it clear that US never regards us as a humanbeing---just a yellow monkey. Remember here again, US is not a respected nation for us at all.

When you are asked, "Chinese or Japanese, which nese are you?" 

You should ask back to the Yankee, "Donk or Yank, which k are you?" 

45 Mpic on full frame, Z8

Version Up to 2.01 firmware on Z8 inhibited the Focus Aide in EVF, how come? It was my favorable function to enjoy manual focusing step, but it was not so helpful but just for fun, because I was used to apply magnifying function utilizing image enlarging to 14X. So, focusing Aide was not always necessary for me.

45 Mpicel in full frame image circle is my unexperienced world, and 16 mm depth flunge back distance allows all the SONY E mount lenses I'm keeping, SONY genuine ones don't work well  through mount adapter, electric relations do not work well. Consequently, I'm playing with third parties and modified ones without any elctric signal inter-relations.

Though 33x44, 24x16 and MFT had been experienced, 45 Mpic full frame is the first time for me, further report later.

Osaka Yodo-River Firework tonight

It's a very hot tropical night, but the sound of the Yodogawa fireworks echoes even here, 10km away. Yes, today is the usual fireworks day. It's so crowded around Hankyu Juso that it's probably impossible to walk properly. The young employees have packed their bags with alcohol and snacks and are heading out. I can only pray that I won't get into an accident. I used an unfamiliar knife and cut my left index finger. The wound wasn't deep, about 1mm depth and 5mm long, but there was a fair amount of bleeding. I applied an antibiotic paste to the area and also took it. I hope the inflammation should be minimal.

NIKON Z8

The most sophisticated full frame mirrorless camera is Nikon Z8, so some rumor says. It was supplied to me by my son accidentally recently. Remember the past, my photographic equipment are all supplied in the same way unintentionally.

SONY A9 has been contributing for my photo hobby without specific dissatisfaction and all the lenses I'm keeping are E mount by way of any adapter rings, most of them are manual focusing system.

As for my surprise, Z8 model has "Focusing Aid" formed at left lower corner, this is really a great gospel for a manual focusing user like myself, remembering the silversalt period with NIKON F autofocusing period. Also Basic with star mark setting shows the same by color transformation from red square to green one. 

Relatively heavy with 900 gr weight as Z8 is, it's body bulk could make it possible to hold even with a little finger so firmly, stoutness is one of the most indispensable requirement I declare. Especially, in case of some long forcal length lens setting up, this condition proves this phenomena in addition to the diameter of the bayonet flange. 

APS-C E mount is fragile easily distorted and not suit with heavy lenses. On the other hand, SONY A9 lacked this physical property because of too small body design, though another performances are almost perfect. In addition, all the SONY genuine lenses are interchangeable on NIKON Z mount without any inconvenience, no matter how electric interaction might exist or not.

Consequently, a newcomer Z8 with 45 megapixel image sensor would be one of an essential equipment from now for sure. 

Jane's Law

Cicada started to cry this morning for the first time this Summer. I feel one year like five days interval, this is Jane's Law.

Before long Radio News told that Mr. Trump was shot while his allocation, but he was not killed.

Conflicts repeats all the time because of money!

Human being is still now animal.

Inbound recovered

Since COVID19 disastor, foreigh tourists have increased in number, let's say Inbound has recovered recently.

Early in the morning around 7:30 AM, I visited Fushimi-Inari Shrine since 1 year interval. Most of the visitors there were from some foreign coutries and around 9 o'clock, it became crowded as usual week day. Though a bit far from the central Kyoto, Fushimi-Inari Shrine must be so popular among foreign visitors, also so to speak Inbound recovered as before. JR Kyoto line and Keihan Line have each stations at very close places .

Shooting objects there were similar with last year for me but different.
