I woke up to find one of the buds of lilies
that I bought a couple of days before had opened up.
I remembered the story from canonshooter2005
that florists usually take them away
to prevent pollens from messing up the petals.
I didn't want red spots on the carpet or on the clothes ;-)
I wanted to record the gorgeous stamens before I removed it.

The light? It was not from florescent lights.
I used the natural light through curtains this time.

My friends there might hated me shooting this
without joining the conversation :-(

It's half past midnight. The date is June 22.
This is the first upload in my own new year.

I have never stopped to see the platforms
from this POV at Keio Shinjuku Station before.

I didn't think much when I shot this,
but now I think it the best for the first upload.
Life is like a journey!

I Hate Rain
The rain has prevented me from going out.
Felix the Cat looks happy in the frame,
but I am not. I know there's no point in
repeating "I hate rain" on every post I make :-(

This is a small coffee table I found in the entrance hall.
