Guest Blogger DJ8: The Rise and Fall

My friend DJ8 posted some stickies in Nippon. He's shooting with a Nikon D90.

DJ8 and I blind posted, which means we took the same set of pictures and arranged them ourselves without looking at each other's ordering. At the bottom linked is his ordering; here is mine, enjoy:

It's a shame to put my two favorite picture first. These textures are unreal. He uses auto ISO with a cap at 3200. I'm used to manually setting the ISO, it's interesting to see how people use their tools differently.

I told him I wanted my sticker to be surrounded by Japanese typography. He delivered.


BNE.


Smoking indoors.





The evil eye stares.


The great communicator knows no language barriers.




Blocks of colour.



Simply breathtaking.


A man secluding his mind, the ultimate search for inner peace, content with having nothing around him. Free from mental enslavement.


With a desire to return back to society, in an attempt to warn the masses to fight off the Evil Capitalists.


Some people think it's madness, some people enjoy the beauty of everyday life.


Not true sepia he says, sepia-inspired I say.


Scapegoatism.

Thank you DJ8 for the pictures, the environment came to life in your shots. Here it is through his eyes.
