I saw the Polysics at in 2012. They were interesting. Not my cup of tea, but they were putting everything into their set, which is always a good thing to see.

In right before the pandemic, there was an interesting mix of tourism happening in , but it was a lot of tourism, and financially, you could tell it was good for the neighborhood. A lot of the stores got shiny new interiors in that time.

One of the things that makes me angry is the way that took away a great park that was used by so many people, and replaced it with a useless mall. When your government tells you that you aren't the kind of person it wants to govern, what do you do?

Before the pandemic, it was interesting to watch change from a very locals-only mindset to a place awash in tourists and tourist money. People who used to hide from cameras didn't even notice them anymore because photographers became so ubiquitous.

I feel like the story in famous sights to be seen is the people seeing them more than the sights. There is a lot of famous in that vein, so I know I'm not alone.

in . I really liked to take photos of people doing work, because that work was never sufficiently appreciated. During the pandemic, that refusal to appreciate the people doing work became very clear. It's been rather depressing.

Sometimes when I'm doing other things, I find a photo that I'd forgotten about, that If I was compiling a book, would probably be cut, but still, it's nice.

I'm pretty fond of this old photo of amazing photographer Jason Arney waiting for the train. We were headed out to see if we could get some Takao photos. I am less fond of all of that human slime that builds up on the surfaces inside crowded trains. Particularly since about Jan 2020.

For a while, I was running a cheap adapter on a lens to get close to 180° — It was fun, and I want to do it again, but also, I don't want to be that close to people anymore.

I used to go to because it was the cheapest place to buy beans, which made it this weird combination area that was a heavy area while still a place where locals did some very specific shopping. That reminded me of before electronics got easier and cheaper to find online.

Old from — I don't know if it's because I've actually edited physical film on a table, or because of the video editing I've done, but I have a soft spot for street photography polyptychs that appear like several frames from a movie.

Old Omoedeyokocho photo. I was never super comfortable with that area. It's a super-compressed neighborhood, so inside that small area, you have people running restaurants that you really like, and people that you'd rather stay away from. The pandemic has been hard on restaurant owners, and the ethics of running any customer-facing business with employees right now hurt my brain and my heart.

Old photo of on – Long enough ago that this was before I bought a scanner. I will have to re-digitize this one in the future.

There was a time where I was buying one of everything at the store, because I needed to experiment to learn what I liked, and what I didn't like. This one is from a roll of — I think that is probably not usually the right choice for but here this was patiently waiting in a basket. Not so much movement. Bikes and pets say so much about people's lives. I love that.

Recently — when, you ask? ... ah ... I swear it was just the other day. It can't have been that long ago — I borrowed @alfiegoodrich's and put some film through it, including a roll of (seen here)
