JAPAN again 2016 [part 1]

Actually this trip came too suddenly.
The main point of this trip is attend to the concert which the idol that I love.
FINAL LOVELIVE ～μ'sic Forever♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪～, is a group of idol called μ's.
When official announce the date of concert I immediately buy flight ticket even the date is near and the price are high, and together booked hostel.

Day by day keep busying my work and finally arrive 28 March 2016.
This time I m alone.
Take a Malaysia airlines flight from Penang to KLIA and transit to Japan Airlines head to Tokyo, Narita international airport.

 

While arrive is the next day 29 March 2016 morning.
After get a sim card to access internet, I ride a train into city area, which station name called Keisei Ueno, while I step up is about already 0930 morning.

From Ueno station again ride to Tawaramachi and here is the place near by my hostel. Since check in time no available yet I drop my luggage first and meet my group of friends together who arrive Tokyo few days ago, and we directly head to Akihabara.

While came out from the station, I saw this.
I suddenly awakening, relax mood started, and started forgot my busy days in pass week.

I have shopping list priority and inside this building got a shop name Doll Point
is the first, to get dolls accessories.





 But not so rush on that ... so I get into the Gamers first.






Some "Kings Blade" glow stick selling at ground floor.

I forgot which floor, got some display stuff of Sora Tokui who is famous voice actor to promote the photo book of herself.

Unconsciously, I bought something.

After that, we all decided walk to Kanda Shrine.
While waiting others, capture some street photo.






While on the way waiting the traffic lights ......




Finally I arrive this stairs who μ's training here.
Suddenly some image fly thru my brain, μ's are training here, run up and down.




And this is Kanda Shrine, which anime LoveLive! Tojo Nozomi working place.
As a important place for LoveLiver, I can see many LoveLivers appears everywhere here, same as myself.




A beverage car are selling characters drinks, 500 yen each, and I sure that I choose Kotori.

Some wood plate that called E-ma 絵馬 that use to write our wish and hang it over there, this is different.
With drawing anime characters on it we called it Ita-ema 痛絵馬, and here are full of the Ita-ema for LoveLive. Is not easy skill to drawing on a wood plate small like this.




After this we go to the houses who leader of μ's Kousaka Honoka stay (in anime), is a dessert shop that serve Japan traditional dessert, there is some people queue up.




After walk around Akihabara, we all go to Nakano to shopping.
But unfortunately  I buy nothing there ... so directly back to hostel to proceed check in and get my bed and dinner ........ sleep early while night.

that's all in first day.

to be continue ......

St George church, Penang Island.

As I know this building is the most oldest building in Penang Island.
Construction finish on early 19 centure (1818).

below copy from wikipedia

St. George's Church is a 19th-century Anglican church in the city of George Town, Penang in Malaysia. It is the oldest purpose built Anglican church in South East Asia and is within the jurisdiction of the Upper North Archedeaconry of the Anglican Diocese of West Malaysia.

I love herritage building and that day I have a chance to photograph this oldest building in Penang.

On that days I got spotted some rays light came from sun and clouds, that's amazing.


This time I get some feeling by using Black & White shooting.





I like this door.



Bad thing is, I can't go inside cause is under maintenance.
Hopefully I can photograph inside after this.

:D

Penang Hot Air Balloon festival 2016

I have late on that day cause those hot air balloon is just rise up at morning and late evening. No choice so I have to wait till evening after that.

Have capture some step by step that how to setup and rise up the hot air balloon.

Bucket with gas inside.


Expand the balloon from a bag.


Using powerfull fan to push some air inside the balloon.


After that pull it up


And put some gas (or may be helium ?) inside to make it continue rise up.


Done


And also got another special shape hot air balloon such as zebra.


Rocket with alien and some how ice scream ..........


That is a lot of people don't know to make some space for them to setup, they standing very near by the balloon and very disturbing. I really don't like this situation and I keep photograph from far place.

hmm

There is too many people waiting to ride it, I have no chance on that, I hate long queue, so I give up on that.

Hopefully I can join again in next time, I love hot air balloon.

Soft box light

Some how I have create a soft box and install a small LED light inside.
The soft box is small so I just able to use it for toys photography.
As a result is good for me, sure I still have to use reflector from opposite side.



Playing and love with LED light after that.

hahaha

:D

Some photoshoot on February 2016 .... late post

Some how I uploaded lot of photo but no time to text this blog, crazy I.
And conclusion is ... I make a post that combine all photo together, easy.


This is capture on Feb 7 ... and that day is Chinese new year. I look clear on the sky without cloud so I took a chance to capture stars just outside my house.



This is capture on Feb 9, that day is 2nd day of Chinese new year.
I have went to my grand mom house and that place is fisherman village area and of course, it near the sea. So I capture the clear and sharp horizon sea.



This both image is capture on Feb 10 ... 3rd day of CNY and I just out with my friends to Penang island, a place called Straits Quay.




After Chinese new year for a few days I haven't capture anything and then I capture again stars outside my house again.


That's all for February :D

Some suprise planning for propose, for my friend.

Some how my colleague are plan to have a surprise propose with his girl friends.
I m the one who help him to capture photo and videos.
Is really no any idea for video cause I seldom recording video before this.

At weekend morning we go to a seaside beach that the plan is gotta work to.
We measure the place and plan to put about 2000 candles light up a path way and the end my friends waiting. After that fireworks works out some feel.

Nice weather that morning


Hmm ...I m nervous, that I afraid take the video no so nice result.
I may borrow some video light from my friends who playing photography stuff because the plan are going to start at sunset to night.

After some discussion on the beach, a path of sunrise light rays crossing from the gap of trees. Is a good chance to photography, and again, I have bring my dollfie.

So this is the result.



After that PS some contrast, done.

That's all for this :D

Capture of flying creatures

Some how I like to capture bird that I spotted around high and far located.
So I need zoom lens. What I have here is 50-230mm lens for Fuji X-mount.
Autofocus is not a good choice so I normally use MF for bird capture.





some how still not a lot nice photo for flying creatures ...... I have to go out often.

That's all for this time.
