The chap on the left actually wanted me to take his naked pics after he spotted me snapping. I was frightened to hear that. The chap on the right said to me that they were best friends since high school.

I cannot believe this blog is now over one year old! I browse some of the earlier photos. I see the style change over time as well. I prefer my old style though.

Nobu is a place with many memories. The toro is not that great but costing heaps. I had many great memories in the place with various people in the life journey.

After testing out most focal lengths for street photography, I still prefer 24mm the best. Ideally it would be 35mm that does the best in the past experiences. I just have not invested in a 35mm prime anymore.
