12月，很有愛的月份。
友人說越來越商業化了，我倒覺得這樣很好，因為商機所以多了氣氛。
常年夏天的我們，漸漸融入這樣的氛圍，送禮物也吃吃喝喝。
好吧，喜歡過節其實是個人選擇。
就像，買與不買也是個人選擇，從來就是如此簡單不是嗎？
邁入12月了，要繼續開心的生活，比昨天又長大了一天。^^

街拍
那天原本很晒的陽光，中午卻下起大雨。
最近的天氣都是如此，時晴時雨，尤其在下班的時候。
好久沒在小島走走，雨天後散步看見了很有意思的Haji Lane。
彩繪的大象，擺在數間廣場里好吸腈。
這條街叫Haji Lane，小小的幾條巷子有很多特色小店。
每間店都裝潢的很有心思，而且裡面賣的多是衣服和一些手作。
偶然看到一道牆寫著華語字：花草樹木。
需要水需要空氣需要大家的支持，支持環保。
每家店的信箱都精心設計過，這個插著兩支黑色玫瑰的，不知道代表著甚麼意思呢？
也許只是純粹的藝術表現吧！
看吧，又一個美麗的信箱！
每家店面不是藍綠紅就是白，光看這些建築的顏色，心情就很愉悅！
帶有點薄荷色的店面，好像已沒有營業的樣子喔！
整條街的店面，最喜歡就是這家，初看見真的以為身在日本了（ 雖然沒有去過 ）。
就是一種望下去就很日本的感覺，裡面賣的是繽紛色彩的腳踏車，看了好喜歡啊！
只是在這多車的城市，不很熟練的還是不敢嘗試吧！
白色的日式腳踏車，看了很喜歡吧？
害羞的粉紅腳踏車，實在很惹人愛啊，可以騎著去甜蜜蜜嘍！哈哈
Lomography - THE GOLD SPECIAL EDITION
OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
The Lomographic Society Proudly Presents:
THE GOLD SPECIAL EDITION
• Shiny & Golden: Diana F+, Diana Mini and Fisheye 2 dangling from gold chains in a posh style • Size Does Not Matter: the Diana sisters enthuse with matching goldenness • A Twinkling Star Is Born: Fisheye 2 rocks with stunning perspectives
SHINY & GOLDEN
Not everything that glitters is gold. This time the saying is not true. Our three beloved camera models Diana F+, Diana Mini and Fisheye 2 have gone through a shiny make-over by Mister Goldfinger himself. Dangling from a bling bling gold chain, they are ready to shine. Still enthusing with unique virtues, they now cause a stir with their glamorous new look. Dangling on a golden chain in your hand, the cameras of the Gold Edition are the must-have accessory for hip parties and special occasions.
SIZE DOES NOT MATTER
But as life shows, outward appearance is not the only important thing in life. Moreover the Gold Edition convinces with its outstanding intrinsic values of producing extraordinary photos. Wearing the same golden and white dress, the tiny Diana Mini doesn’t need to be afraid of a comparison with her bigger sister: While the Diana F+ convinces with its dreamy, radiant and lo- fi images, the Youngster with the half-frame format knows how to fascinate in her own charming way.
A TWINKLING STAR IS BORN
The golden dress is finally the suitable look for this star. The Fisheye 2 is already well-known and loved for its unique perspectives through the built-in fisheye lens. Especially these two factors make the Gold Edition a real treasure: Colorful and remarkable in their perspectives, these cameras capture your precious memories in stunning and unique pictures while blinging away in goldenness.

萬花筒。自樂
聽說過萬花筒嗎？
聽說透過單眼就能看見繽紛色彩。
我沒有真正的看過這個聽聞已久的萬花筒。
但，心裡卻為她設定了形狀與顏色，竟然。
很多年前曾看過一部香港電影（忘了是那一部），男主角給女主角一個圓形狀類似望遠鏡的東東。劇情說著男主角要逗女主角開心。女主角單眼望進去，鏡頭轉變成五顏六色的花花形狀，不重複的圖案但規矩的旋轉，女主角嘴角上揚，不自覺的笑了出來。
自此，我對這玩意充滿好奇，這個圓形狀的萬花筒確實能讓看過的人都發笑或心情變妙許多。花花的圖案就像我們存在的地球，花花世界，要繽紛有繽紛，要旋轉可自轉，但，我們還是規律的睡覺吃飯喝水呼吸偶爾欣賞大自然，想要轉轉走走就旅遊去，想要輕鬆呼吸，就找本書聽歌很簡單。
話說回來，我給萬花筒設定了一個樣子，圓身大約30公分長，深藍色刻有重複的白色黃色花花圖案，單眼望進去是紫色一片花花綠綠的旋轉（至於為何表層是深藍色但裡面是紫色為主的這個想法，我也說不來，是打從心裡的這麼認定）。有個友人說，萬花筒是可以自製的，這樣算不算是自製的快樂？也許，心裡設定的那個萬花筒比較難找到，但，快樂來自心中，也許，不一定摸得到看得到，心裡就自製一個屬於自己的萬花筒吧，直接也容易的方式。
Lomo Kino ^^
The Lomographic Society Proudly Presents
The LomoKino - Super 35 Movie Maker
Lomography in Motion: Take the next step in Lomography with the first camera that makes your Lomographs move on any kind of 35mm film
Unique Art: Become the director of your very own LomoMovies and produce unique and precious pieces of movie art by simply winding a crank
True Gadget: Irresistible design and unlimited creative possibilities will make gadget loversí hearts pound faster
LomoMovies Online: Upload, watch and share your very own LomoMovies on www.lomography.com.
Lomography in Motion
How great it must have been to witness the first pictures as they started to move or to see the Lumiere brothers amazing the crowds with their very first short films. After over 200 years of movie making, million-dollar-special-effects, big scale film studios and endless Hollywood dramas, we give you the chance to return back to the roots of movie making and witness the very first steps of moving Lomography. The LomoKino allows you to become a director yourself and capture Lomographic movies on 35 mm film of any kind: no sound, no special effects, no post production ñ just simple Lomography in motion.
Unique Art
To become a true LomoMovie director, just simply wind the crank of the magic box to capture 144 shots on one roll of 35 mm film - which makes 36 to 48 seconds of LomoMovie. You can use any kind of 35 mm film for different effects: Slide film, colour negative, redscale or B/W. After developing the film, spool it into the specially developed LomoKinoScope and watch your Lomographs moving over and over again. What sounds very simple produces a unique piece of art which can either stay in your hands only or can be given as a special present to somebody who really deserves it. Show your sweetheart how fast your heart is really pounding or capture a flying birthday cake for your grandma who will feel catapulted back in time.
True Gadget
A wise man once said ìform follows functionî ñ naaaah ñ we like to say ìform follows motionî and thatís why we designed this camera to become a true gadget. Its irresistible design takes you straight back into the time when people left the audience screaming because a locomotive was speeding towards them on a movie screen and the movies were still a true business without special effects. It comes in a package either alone or with the LomoKinoScope, one film canister and a marvelous book. Its creative possibilities are so diverse that not even we can tell the limits. Itís up to you, gadget lovers, to take this baby in your hands and explore what movies used to be like the Lomographic way!
LomoMovies Online
Unlike the very first filmmakers we can call a powerful tool our own: the internet! Linking the simple technology of the LomoKino with our website, enables you to upload, watch and share your own LomoMovies.
