It wasn't digital camera's fault デジカメのせいではなかった #2

Cell-phone au A5518SA I hope to finish undone post by the end of this year. Long time ago, I use to take pictures seriously. After I became unable to draw pictures, I wanted something to express myself. I couldn't make something with my hands directly, so I picked photography, Soon I found it was really interesting and difficult. I got crazy about it. My main camera was Nikon FM2. People don't know much about digital, so when someone said "Dejikame is great!", the others ask him, like "Huh? Kochikame?". A while later, I got my first digital camera. It was Casio QV-10A. After using it, somehow I felt photograpy was becoming boring. Lately I found that it was just because my situation, or "I" changed at the time. Not digital camera's fault. So... I'm trying to use my cell-phone often now, as the easiest digital camera. This is just my idea, but the day starting taking picture is more unforgettable than the first drawing. Children can draw pictures with pencil and paper. But photography needs development. I guess most people start photography at club activity in school or after growing up. Except for the people who given own cameras from a young age, like Lartigue. I think digital camera set those children; potential photographers, free. They don't have to ask their parents to have the films developed. Old time children had only one roll of film per a week(no, a month, or a season), but today's children could take pictures unlimitedly. It's like doodle! I'm curious about the photographs taken by them in the future! Then some of them would choose film. So excited.

Merry Christmas!

One Night Cell-phone au A5518SA I didn't like digital cameras. I thought the one made photography less enjoyable for me was digital, then I dropped interest in it gradually. Now two years have passed since I started taking pictures again, I feel that I got a wrong idea. I can't think about it clearly yet, I'll finish it next time. Today's Japanese phrases are about the New Year's holiday. デジカメが好きじゃなかった。デジタルが写真をつまらなくしたと思い、徐々に興味を失っていった。再び写真を撮るようになって２年が過ぎ、自分は思い違いをしていたかなと感じている。まだ考えがまとまっていないので、続きは次回。 今回はお正月にまつわる日本語を紹介します。 Happy New Year! to friends hiragana : あけましておめでとう！ あ(a) け(ke) ま(ma) し(shi) て(te) お(o) め(me) で(de) と(to) う(u) it sounds : a ke ma shi te o me de tô formally add "gozaimasu" at the end hiragana : あけましておめでとうございます。 あ(a) け(ke) ま(ma) し(shi) て(te) お(o) め(me) で(de) と(to) う(u) ご(go) ざ(za) い(i) ま(ma) す(su) it sounds : a ke ma shi te o me de tô go za i ma su japanese traditional New Year's dishes hiragana : おせち りょうり お(o) せ(se) ち(chi) り(ri) ょ(yo) う(u) り(ri) it sounds : o se chi ryô ri **りょうり/ryôri means dish and food.
