i hate crowds too, but mostly it’s the lines. the longer i have to wait in line, the more awesome the thing i’m waiting for better be. so when that awesome thing is… checking out at a crowded store or… buying a snack… i get -_- pretty quick ^^;

weird your yami hasn’t gone out yet… maybe they’re double checking their stock… ‘cuz mine shipped without a blade hand -_- e-mailed hobby search yesterday to see what to do… hopefully should get a response today or tomorrow…

Nope, too cold here for any sakura…I think. There are a lot of different parades and events that goes on in DT Toronto once in a while, but I never go to any of them because I hate crowded places…have enough of that at work lol Might just hit a couple of them to share…just might…

Speaking of Yami-chan, not sure why HobbySearch haven’t sent mines out yet.

Very nice shots, loving those sakura closeups. :) Looks like the festival was a lot of fun. It’s still winter on this side of the continent, so I’m a bit jealous. :D

you’ll have to content yourself with james’ review for now ‘cuz i did my haruhi review first (well, processed the pics, writing it up now)… though yami should follow soon after :P

love seeing events from all over the world, looking forward to the coverage ^_^

still on my trusty canon powershot s2 with the 6-72mm lens it comes with ^^; i think i was just lucky with the weather for the photos to turn out so vividly ‘cuz most of the time when outdoors I just set it to full auto and things usually turn out pretty good ^^; (well, i do go to macro mode for sakura)

also, i have no reservations about touching up photos before posting them, so not all of them are straight off the camera :P (i guess for this shoot, most of the indoor shots needed some adjustments. I think ‘cuz of the great conditions outside, those mostly turned out)
