Musuji / CCCR

One of the events leading up to my friend Zach's wedding.  

Featured were 1/2 of the band Musuji and the CCR cover band CCCR.

Great music and great time was had by all!

Zach wielding the mic.

Pearce on guitar.

Lucas on drums.

 

 The other half of the performance was CCCR.

 Tom

 Rich.  

He's concentrating, not angry that the drums are in the corner by the coat rack. 

Great bass player, I'll put his name here once I find out what it is.

I tried to get a few more introspective shots of the comedians who preformed this night.

Autumn 秋

Little everyday things.

The late afternoon light illuminated this blossom on the balcony brilliantly.

A few days this week I found myself on the train even earlier than usual and rather than show up to work super early, I took some time to wander about and take some photos in the late morning light.

Not so itsy bitsy spider.  

These spiders are one of the things I like about fall here in Japan.  Not only are they rather large with a 10cm leg span, but their webs can be as large as 2 metres across.

Sometimes B/W just looks better.

Otsu-Shrine - 大津神社

 Otsu-Shrine -  大津神社

After the entrance and before the shrine building itself there are always two guardian lion-dogs; one with its mouth open and a ball; the other with the mouth closed.
