When I was home in LA, my sister gave me a Holga lens for the Canon dslr. I was definitely curious. I love shooting with my Holga that I got on the internet almost 10 years ago for only $10. But it has mostly been sitting on the shelf. So to actually get the same Holga look on my Canon..sure I’ll give it a try.
It was fun to walk around with the Holga lens on and I did get some pretty interesting results. Though I’m glad I didn’t have to pay $25 for it.
Whirlybird in South Williamsburg (S. 2nd close to Havemeyer St) only serves breakfast tacos. What’s better than eating a delicious taco and then washing it down with an iced coffee…while sitting outside? Total bliss.
Why not have your coffee to stay and just relax for a bit.

Birthday! Yes more birthday talk. This was, might I say, best birthday year ever, when your all time most favorite Japanese rock band hits up NYC for their 20th anniversary world tour near my birthday! L’Arc~en~Ciel, a band I have listened to since high school, along with X Japan and Luna Sea, was introduced to me by my good friend Ken.
So how did I get into the photo pit at MSG? Well..it’s awesome when your younger sister works at a music magazine and knows the PR person handling this tour. I was given a photo pass AND a ticket to see the show after my work was done. Yes it was work since I was taking photos for my sister’s company. Standing in the photo pit, waiting for the band to start and having to snake around other photographers to get my shot. During all that I realized…I kind of miss taking concert photos. The one awesome experience I had was when I got to travel, with other coworkers, to the Voodoo Music Experience down in New Orleans back in 2008. Ah..hello! I got to have front row viewing of R.E.M., Lil Wayne, Lupe Fiasco, Stone Temple Pilots…etc.
Also thanks to my friend Anh for lending me her telephoto lens since i traded mine for a Canon G12.
