Today's picture is the one from Nori's latest blog post.
A kitten at Atelier and Cafe INSANITY located in Harunomachi, Yahatahigashi, Kitakyushu.

Leica has its very unique color expressions, which is sometimes difficult to handle and process. So he occasionally ends up finishing pics black and white, but this time Leica M8 drew really good nuance of colors!

今宵は光永典人ブログより、こちらの写真を。

八幡東区春の町のAtelier and Cafe INSANITYのコアちゃん。はじめて会うのに、私の膝に乗って気持ち良さそうに眠ってくれたんですよ。可愛い！

Leicaは色の出方にクセがあって、なかなか難しいときが多いのですが、これはとても良いニュアンスで、好きな一枚です。

こちらの典人ブログもどうぞご覧ください(*^^*)

October 25, 2014 "Leica M8 is back home"

Leica M8 is back home last night after its repair that took almost a month.

In the yesterday evening when I just missed to receive Leica delivered few minutes before, Nori immediately called me saying "Hey, I got a mail it has been sent but nobody's at home...". How much he'd been missing Leica!

"Alright alright, I'm calling delivery person and get it today"

This is the one he took last night during his late dinner, couldn't wait till he finish eating and grabbed Leica searching for something he can capture with it. Not really pretty my face in this pic, but yeah, really gentle and beautiful the tone Leica has drawn is.

This morning my husband's face was full of happy smile, with his loving Leica hanging on his neck.

一ヶ月近く修理のため遠くに入院していたLeica M8が、昨日の夜に帰ってきました。
夕方、指定していた宅配時刻をコロっと忘れて少し遅く帰宅した私に、速攻で典人から電話が……（不在連絡のメールが入るんです）……どれだけLeicaに会いたいんだか！

「はいはい、ちゃんと今日中に受け取るように連絡しとくから」

遅い夕飯をとる間も、傍らにLeicaを置いて愛情の眼差しを注ぐ。そしてシャッターを切ったのが、このショット。私の顔、お化粧取れ取れの出っ歯むき出しなんだけど…でもLeicaのトーンは柔らかくて美しいね。

今朝。Leica M8を首からぶら下げて、満面の笑顔で出掛けていきました。

October 18, 2014

A weekend just started with a pleasant sunny autumn sky! Today’s image was shot at the Ashiya beach in Onga-gun. It was a bit early to go straight home after picking up our son at school, we decided to go driving to Ashiya Seaside Park which has huge beautiful lawn field. Took a walk around for a while and stepped out to the beach right next to the park, there we came across this scene. There were ladders of light leading to heaven.

Unlike many landscape photographers, Nori and I don’t usually watch for place, season, and time to shoot landscape pictures. We just carry cameras everyday to everywhere, and if we happen to meet nice scenery we take some pics. If we couldn’t hit any such scene, still we catch some beautiful pics in our heart.

Have a nice weekend!!

秋晴れの気持ちのいいweekendのはじまりですね！今日の写真は、遠賀郡の芦屋海岸での一枚。息子を迎えに行った帰りに少し時間があったので、広い芝生のある芦屋海浜公園で散歩をして、松林を隔ててすぐ隣りにある海岸に出てみると、この風景。天から梯子が下りていました。

典人も私も、風景写真を撮るのは好きですが、場所・季節・時間帯を狙って写真を撮りに行く……ということはほとんど無くて、常にカメラを持ち歩いてて、日常生活の中でたまたま出会った風景をカメラに収めることがほとんどです。

今日はどんな風景に出会えるんだろう。もし写真に撮るべき風景に出会えなかったとしても、心にどんな絵を残してくれるんだろう。そんな気持ちで、今日もカメラを持って出掛けます。

A scene I found when I came home after work late at night.

October 10, 2014

The night was about to fall on the day we three of our family members shared the whole day

going on a one-day trip.

October 5, 2014

It's been 3 months since we moved to Kurosaki, Kitakyushu. This picture is the morning rush hour on Route 3 running right in front of Kurosaki station. The light falling through buildings, the reflection on the road and car bodies, and the air of tension in the beginning of the day.

今年の夏より、北九州市の黒崎に住んでいます。黒崎の朝といえば、駅前を通る３号線の通勤ラッシュ。ビルの谷間からこぼれる光、アスファルトや車のボディの照り返し、そして一日のスタートという緊張感。
