            This was a new year's afternoon walk with Mrs Snowy.

                bit of a closer one for you then @Giles, wasn't entirely happy with this for some reason so didn't post.

                  I think the one you just posted is a bit "obvious", if you know what I mean.  I prefer the former too…

                          some very evocotive images here.
                          amazing how a photo, taken by another, and of a totally different part of the world, has the ability to bring into my consciousness memories of forgotten times and associated feelings.
                          cheers @Snowy

                                  @twin I'll be Down Under at the weekend, so maybe I'll add a few more shots to give an impression of what life is like there.

                                      Been a bit quiet on here; have not had the camera around much. Thought about it once or twice but chose other moments.

                                      I'm off to India for 2 weeks of work come this weekend. I will be taking the camera. I've heard the internets are shite over there, so not sure when/what I'll get up, nor what I'll have time for work-wise. However, expect to see some of Mumbai and Navi Mumbai on here soon!

                                        Well ^ didn't go according to plan. Ended up getting quite sick in India, and managed to take my camera out one day. I was still too sick to be walking around, and within 3 blocks of walking from the hotel fled back to continue resting. It's taken a few weeks since to get anywhere back to health.

                                        Visited a classic US of A Diner with Mrs Snowy during the week, and took around the back streets of Glebe on Saturday.

                                        Slowly in the process of getting the eye back in. 7 weeks until back in Japan. 1 camera, 1 lens again.

                                          These are from about 2-3 weeks ago now and were left on the card. Was taken with the objective of just making sure I know how to use the camera. Camera's recently been in for a service and is now shiny/ready for Japan next week. Kit is the same as last time, Leica M9-P with Summicron 35mm f2.0 ASPH.

                                            Here we are, back in the wonderful Japan. Flew in this morning, hit the ground running, after a quick shower. Good 5-6 hours sleep on the plane makes all the difference. Per the Japan 15 thread, it's much warmer here than expected. I packed light (read; 2 t-shirts, no spare jeans, 2 denim t-shirts, 1 flannel) so will be doing bit and pieces of shopping. Lots of sightseeking inner city loops today. Think we did well hitting up Harajuku, Omotesando, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ebisu, and Daikanyama in 1 day. THe Suica card makes getting around a dream, no need to wait for the fancy JR trains, which are more limited in their destinations. Walked to the IH office today by mistake, wave at the door on the way past ::).

                                            Good to be back!
