Tight like a Tigurrrrrrrrr

Hello 2010,HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!
This was my first adult new years in Japan, knowing that Japan's interpretation of New Years was more to do with eating buckwheat noodles and watching bad variety programs,I thought I'll be hanging up my dancing shoes and leaving that bottle in the fridge. Oh, life I adore you how you prove me so wrong sometimes!

Being in Kyoto and having my amazing sister there, we left the house to find this party at a club. Not knowing where to go led us to the one of the most randomest bestest (I know these aren't words but they are for now) night ever.

I asked these two random guys infront of the combini store for directions to the club. They turned out to be two great guys with GREAT music taste and who were great fun to be with. We ended up hanging out all night,even ended up in another city. If we didn't turn that corner or if I didn't ask these guys for directions, the night would have been completley different.Great start to the year, the year of the tiguurrrrrrrrr, it's going to be awesome.
Here's a mish mash of the night.

Under the sea and then over on a boat....on a mother f@@ckn boat!!

Seals, dolphins, giant sea turtles, we saw them all. Since leaving New Zealand seems like I've replaced the concrete jungle with some nature and cuddly animals. I'm a changed women. We top off the day with a boat......boat ride for 3 I might add.

Yeah I got it......

Rolling stones MJ edition!! Frankly after the third day, I got sick of hearing media/news updates about his death his ex wife, neverland etc etc etc. Leave the poor man to rest. Anyway, The Rolling stones tribute was nicely done. It's definalty one I want to keep in the memory box. Some real cool photos are in there as well, especially the cover.And the pull out poster just made me all giggly and excited....reminded me of the days of buying a copy of TV hits and putting a poster of Leonardo Dicaprio on my wall.....ummm.... Go buy a copy!

Too much juice not enough shots

I got way too excited about the Kick Back, consumed too much liquer and forgot to take photos. The night was wickid, I'm glad I accomplished one thing before I left Wellington. I wanted the city to hear some sweet sweet tunes and on Saturday the guys delivered. Thanks to all for making Saturday happen, Y'all are sweet! So I tried to make the most of what was in my camera.....

Ricky Powell

Fulog I'm sorrrrrrry, I've neglected you again!! Forgive me, but I'm back. And what better way to come back with a plug on Ricky Powell.

Ricky is a NYC based photographer and has been clicking away since the 1980s. He is known as the 'Fourth' Beastie boy and has snapped photos of many famous rappers including Run DMC and Public Enemy. The work I Love of his is his colabs he's jacked up with other artists including Kaws. Love it.

True Story: I added him on myspace, couple of days later he sent me a message saying he peeped my photography on my page and thought it was rad. (best moment ever!)
I was suppose to link up with him in NYC but after getting his answer machine 3times I thought the 4th time will be Stalker ville territory.
Anway check out his art, legend!

I love Gold

Everytime I watch this it makes me happy..... I really wish I was a part of this. What would you do??

More derelict buildings.....ummmm

So once again me and my cyber went on a photo mission to find derelict, grimy buildings and surroundings. This time we were in the company of Fluro. We climbed fences, walked on the tracks....everything a lady shouldn't do....but I loved it! Although I love the grime and I love rust, next time I want a new surrounding and make new discoveries.
