It is a small pleasure for me to take pictures of the 4 seasons scenery of the places I visit with a camera in my hand and be satisfied with myself, but with the weather getting worse year by year, it may be necessary to have a summer vacation period. I think this has already been the case for a couple of years.
However, it is also true that if you avoid the stress of the heat, the stress of not being able to take pictures will build up. So, as a small measure of resistance, I tried to take a quick shot while I was on my way to work.
I took this photo on impulse while walking with Lumix GF10 in my hand.
You probably don’t know what this is, but one evening in an office district, I was feeling a “matter of life” about the fallen leaves on the basin of a spring water object, so I took a quick shot. After adjusting the color temperature a bit, I was able to get a somewhat cooler shot than the real thing.
This is another shot of the green space in the valley between the buildings, a kind of public open space that will be provided as part of the large redevelopment project.
I took this photo on impulse when I saw the combination of the row of trees, the back of the woman with the parasol, and the foot lighting.
It may be difficult to convey what attracted me to the scene, but my instant fantasy at the time was that the area would be more appealing if it were surrounded by wooden walls and townhouses instead of concrete blocks, lanterns instemore incomplihensiblead of footlights, and people on the street were dressed in traditional Japanese clothing. Yes, I understand it’s just a fantasy.
Finally, here is a picture more incomprehensible.
The branches and leaves of the plantings have fallen off and into the gaps between the pavement footlights, creating a strange silhouette. That’s all there is to it, but there I found something to see.
On this day, in addition to these three curious photos, I also prepared a number of worthless ones, in other words, photos that I had failed to take. But even including all of them, it took about 15 minutes, and I was done before I started to sweat in the office district as dusk was falling. Looking back at the photos I took, I was somewhat satisfied with them, and the “quick shot” activity may be an effective formula to relieve the stress of not being able to take pictures. The quality of the photos is another matter.
Still, I hope the heat will pass soon.
