Summer is here! and I'm all re-freshed although there are sitll
tests that I have.
But I finished my huge essay so I'm quite relaxed and all I have to do is to clear out my schedule for the summer in TOKYO and study french. BONJOUR MONSIEUR/MADAME/MADEMOISELLE. How difficult.
Seems like this summer is going to be a really interesting one as I'm spending half of it in Tokyo, Nagoya and a little bit of Paris.
How lucky.
Hope all of you are doing great and healthy.
Ah, speaking of which, I'm starting to get the hang of hatha-yoga. It's been over a year since I have started Hatha-Yoga(power yoga) and finally, I'm successfully making my inner boddy muscles flow. Just 40minutes of yoga makes me sweat like crazy. The back of my t-shirt gets soaked. At the end, my shirt gets really heavy. Kinda gross but true. I thought I was doing something wrong so I asked my bf who is too, a yoga nerd. Accroding to him, if you flow properly, you do sweat heaps. Plus, the sweat is like water. And that is detoxing your body. Which equals to getting rid of your water in you and making your body toned.
Hmm....The mystery of yoga.
I went for a walk at 玉川上水(a river) and took some photos of the place since the weather was amazing.
Did you know photos which are totally out of focus that the lights seem like bubbles,(the last one of the three) is called "BOKEH"?
Which means "out of focus"in Japanese. Bokeh is actually a word that professional photographers use too. And Bokeh is really big now. Like the trend.
So, please critique my bokeh.haha
this is Major. I like the first picture the best. The bokeh is too blurry for me. It makes me feel I need my specs to somehow have some focus.
ReplyDeleteMaybe bokeh only works for the young??
It's hot and humid in Nagoya!!
Hi Uma,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the photos. Like Fredumi, I like the 1st photo best. The 3rd one is interesting but seems to be a pointless or maybe too Bokeh. Perhaps if it had a contrasting color amongst the green such as red or just one tiny part in focus . . .
Summer in Tokyo, Nagoya & Paris sounds good. BTW, the current weather forecast for Paris over the next 10 days have min temps of 12~17 degrees while days go up to 20~27. In other words cool or warm, not hot, not cold. You need to pack those kind of clothes to take, OK?
