Wanted to see the largest Full Moon of the year, but the horizon all was covered with hazy clouds in the moonrise time... It was a blue hour and it was hard to say where clouds thin where thick... I very much hoped that the moon will peek-a-boo through the cloud veil and waited, waited for some time... and oh miracle, the Strawberry Super Moon appeared for a tiny fraction of time just enough to make a few of shots! They are not quite super as the moon itself, but I'm rather happy with them nonetheless..
The first full Moon is June is called a Strawberry Moon, according to Native American folklore, because the short season for harvesting strawberries comes during the month of June. Other names include Rose Moon and Flower Moon.
And this year it's a Super Moon of Strawberry June :-)
Since it was a moonrise and due to atmospheric conditions on Earth, the colour of the moon was totally strawberry-friendly and in combination with the blue hour it felt magical.
There is no colour correction here in this diptych, I just was not able to resist casting a little bit of texture magic to emphasize the velvet feel of the sky canvas and that's all.

Konbanwa! (Good evening!)
Via Flickr:
I always wanted to take some photo like this~ some fairy tale style, make it look like in a story~
Actually I was just trying to secretly take a photo of one deer under the tree when i found them on my way to the festival~ but one of them noticed me n brought all of the deers towards me.... so i had to ask My gf to be brave n go track one by the side of the tree, so i can take this photo~ the rain was really heavy at that time, i got all of my stuff wet, but the picture worth me to do it!

Spring Song of Paper. Mini Oribana 'Solo'
Via Flickr:
You know some sorts of paper will just sing in your hands, especially when it's spring around :-) Continuing our miniature Oribana project... and here is a miniature version of our Oribana composition called SOLO.
The starring vase is Yuri's design called Solo, hence the name of the composition. The flower design is my Solo-Lily, a special kind of an imaginary bloom :-)
The vase is just 4 cm high, 1-3/4 inches, and the whole arrangement is 4 inches high (10 cm).
Used wonderful hand-made Japanese paper Moriki Kozo for the flowers, classic origami paper for the greens and some silvery designers paper for the vase.
Note for origami enthusiasts: The step-by-step diagrams on how to fold the composition are published in our ORIBANA BEAUTY
www.oriland.com/store/collections/oribana_beauty/main.php Happy folding!
