Week 11 - Tiger & Bunny on Flickr.

I bought a fisheye lens and was able to test it out at Anime Conji this weekend in San Diego.

On Sunday I took some photos of my friend Chris and his girlfriend Lauren dressed up as Tiger & Bunny (respectively).

I really like how this photo turned out. I still need more practice with that Fisheye though.

Taken with my Sony a200 with a Sigma 10mm Fisheye lens.

Amazing fan art. Can you name all of the characters?

LOZ SKYWARD SWORD

“American audiences will first hear the music of French composer Cécile Corbel in “The Secret World of Arrietty,” the latest fairy tale from Studio Ghibli. Yet the story of how Japan’s revered animation house plucked the harpist from near-obscurity is one ripe for motion-picture folklore itself. Corbel packed her music with a letter and mailed the package on an inter-continental journey to Ghibli headquarters and awaited a response that she knew likely wouldn’t come. “I wrote a letter to the head producers over there and I was not expecting much,” said Corbel, who spoke to Pop & Hiss via a translator. The artist has released multiple albums in her native country, and said she was drawn to the works of Studio Ghibli — “Ponyo” and “Howl’s Moving Castle,” among them — for the way in which they blend ecological themes with fanciful storytelling that pulls from ancient, mythical beliefs. “I sent them my latest album as a sort of a fan thing,” she said. “I never thought I’d be working for the studio. I truly expected nothing in return.”” (via ‘The Secret World of Arrietty’ has a fairytale in its music - latimes.com)
