Cluttered Spaces and a few Other Snaps

I’ve been walking home from work the last couple days for a couple reasons. 1. Up until about a week ago it sits around 94ºf with high humidity, but with the last typhoon the weather has changed for the better. Now it’s a ‘comfortable’ 82ºf which is a lot more pleasant to walk home in. 2. It gives me a few more chance to take the Ricoh GR out for a spin.

I don’t like clutter. I’m much more of a minimalist, which is why the following photos are so hard for me to look at. Somehow, this is a workable environment, it just couldn’t be my environment.

Along with the clutter I’ve found in a few other slightly more pleasant street scenes.

Umbrellas for sunny weather, umbrellas for the rain and sometimes just because.

All but one of these images were edited from DNG files in Silver Efex Pro 2 and treated with the Kodak 100 TMAX Pro film simulation.

BTW - This scooter just about ran me over a block from home.
