Right outside the front gate of Yokosuka
navy base is a love hotel named Hotel Goddess.
Around 8 a.m. on Tuesday morning of
last week a 19 year old Japanese girl lost here life
there.
Details are still sketchy, but this
is what has come out so far:
Around 8 a.m. the front desk clerk
at the love hotel noticed a man leaving the hotel alone
through an emergency exit. The clerk went to question
the man, but the guy was unresponsive and fled the scene.
The clerk then went to check on the room and found the
girl dead in the bathtub. The man who fled the scene
was apprehended a few days later and tests on him and
the girl showed that they had both been taking LSD (or
some other sort of halucinogic drug) at the time. Supposedly
the guy does not remember anything that happened.
Regardless of what happened, (suicide,
accident, drug induced murder) it is very sad situation.
One young girl dead and a young guys life ruined. Not
to mention the two families along with all their friends...
Sad.
Very sad.

Todays photos were all taken up in
Tokyo earlier in the day today.
I was further exercising my new Carl
Zeiss 21mm f2.8 T* Distagon and I think the results
more speak for themselves.
Zeiss glass is truly in a class of its own. The coatings
tat the The coatings tat the eiss lenses use provides
for unbelievable color and contrast.

On Monday I am taking a day off from
work to go on a "Dynamic
Tokyo Tour" being sponsored by Sony.
About a month back I read an add in
the Japan Times that Sony was sponsoring a few free
all-day bus tours in Tokyo. I threw my name in the hat
and ended up getting selected.
Sony provides me with one of their
newest digital cameras to shoot with and at the end
of the day I give them feedback on what I thought about
their camera.
I'll be shooting with the
Sony DSC-P150. I hope they give me a HUGE memory
stick to shoot with. I'm not sure if I will be able
to get a copy of the photos I take, but I'm going to
try.
I have already seen most of the places
covered by the tour, but here are a few things that
will be new for me.
I'm looking forward to it.
