    Wonderful blog!

    another look on your excellent blog ... I love the grain and the mood in your work ... congratulations !!!

    I had to come back to check your archives. If your photography is the result of being sad - be sad. Its no sin to be sad. As long as you can still have a drink, get laid and make enough money to buy a drink and get laid - life aint so bad. Keep up the good work. Check my site and photos if you're not too busy. Randy

    Few people can see the way that you do. Its a blessing and a curse. Keep taking those photos - it will be to all of our benefit. Randy www.poptophorror.com

    Hello.
    You are still busy now?
    Take it easy.
    Anyway, I'm glad that you look fine.
    Re: yamasaki ko-ji.   やー、tsuuさん。元気? 相変わらず仕事に追われつつ消沈し、天井のしみなどを数えながら「俺の人生って一体...」などと過ごす毎日です、こんんち。
    もう宝くじしかないです。地道に働き続けて90年、何も変わんねー。ちゅうか年々悪いです。近畿宝くじで1,000円だけ当たったのでヨシとしています。
    とりあえず5月の終わりごろ居候先からは開放されたのですが、次の仕事納期がまた2年送れています。2年て。そのお陰で会社の資金繰りは無に等しく、今日の昼もシンプル炒飯です。これで3ヶ月毎日連続炒飯です。おかげでプロ級の腕前になりました。鍋のあおり方も周富徳まっ青な上達ぶりです。高さ60メートルぐらい飛ばして回転させます。万国ビックリショーがあったら予選通過できたでしょう。
    相変わらずそんなしょうーもない生活を送っているのですが、昨日なんて朝起きたら足首が痛い。寝る前までは何ともなかったのに。寝てる時に捻ったのかな、と思いながら一日を過ごしていると夕方近くには歩けなくなっていました。症状は捻挫っぽいのですが、寝てるだけでなぜ捻挫するのか、おかしくないですか。ちょっと悪いのですが嫁に「昨日寝てる時に俺の足ゴリゴリしたやろ?」と聞いてみたのですが、そんな暇ないわ!と足だけに軽くあしらわれました。うまい。いやしかし妙です。霊でもいるのだろうか。
    大阪へは交通費が無いので出勤していません。自宅勤務です。自分に甘く人にも甘い男が自宅勤務などまともにできる訳ありません。ついダラダラインターネットやらしてしまいます。ちょっとだけエロサイトも見てしまいます。
    しかしこの性格も年内でおさらばです。来年こそは世界的有名人になるでしょう。プリントが1枚80万で売れるはずです。期待しておいて下さい。
    thanks for your visiting.

    Hi,
    I use to visit your photos once a month, they inspire me as do Moriyama's for example. If you plan to sell your copies, contact me.
    I hope, also, to see new photos.

    1. a negative of the high temperature developing --> 70%
      but contrast is emphasized too much when i stir it.
      i make much of a tone than the contrast.

    2. printing(multi-grade paper #3 or #4) --> 30%
  1. Franco  / Jul 22,2008 RE:
    Your photos are wonderful. I like high contrast in BW.
    Is the original negative like that, or you get that contrast during the printing ?
  1. Val  / Jul 15,2008 RE:
    classic photography, japanese style..
  1. Ismo  / Jul 15,2008 RE:
    I really admire your work. It is haunting and beautiful, almost poetic.
  1. Israel  / Jul 13,2008 RE:
    u give us just the raw photo, so beautiful!!
  1. bob  / Jul 13,2008 RE:
    there is something very mysterious to these shots
    you show yourself so often, but somehow you are so elusive
    you say you are sad, but so many people are laughing in the shots
    but thats a good thing, too much melancholy imagery would be too much

    thanks for sharing!

    beautiful work you have a great talent

    Le fotografie più stupefacenti
  1. John  / Jul 05,2008 RE:
    Thanks for your reply Ko-Ji Yamasaki (i hope i say it right)

    Could I ask why you use Lomo and Richoh, is the camera important? Maybe you like compact cam so they fit in pocket? Why Lomo for color and not Ricoh, sorry for so many questions...

    Your photo's are inspiration, maybe the thing you will be most remembered for in life... you should take more even if you are busy!!
    Re: yamasakiko-ji.   yes, they fit in pocket.
    first of all, lightweight and compact is important for me.
    if i feel something, i take a photo before losing freshness.
    the lens of GR1v is very sharp. its necessary to print for a beautiful monochrome tone and grain.
    the color photo is too realistic.
    LOMO lens is fuzzy. LC-A is just good to hide it.
    thanks John.
  1. yamasaki  / Jul 04,2008 RE:

    » ALL
    thanks a lot !
    i'm glad for your comments !!

    » John san.
    i use RICOH GR1-V (b&w) and LOMO LC-A (color x-processed).
