morning photography

Tokyo, 2005.08.10

I decided last night that I would finally get my act together and make the stop on the way to work that I've been thinking about for the past two weeks. So I left the hotel early and got on the usual train to work. This time, though, I got off the train at Hananasochu station and doubled back to take some pics of the boats that I see tethered there every morning.

They seem to be some kind of river cruising vessels, and they're all jammed in together in this little stretch of river (or canal). As seems to be the case everywhere in the city, an overpass has been built over the river, and the banks have been built up with walls and houses. So the boats are sort-of boxed in on the stretch of flotsam-heavy water.

Just the kind of thing for my XP2.

Naturally, this morning was hellishly humid, so when I pulled my camera out of the backpack, I discovered that the camera's proximity to an (unrefridgerated!) apple was enough to have the lens and viewfinder all fogged over. I hope my lenses don't get moldy, here.

rand()m quote

I'm pleased and happy to repeat the news that we have, in fact, caught and killed a large predator that supposedly injured some bathers. But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the beaches are open and people are having a wonderful time.
