A friend of mine just sent me a link to a marvelous photography blog. I’m enchanted with these self-portraits of Natsumi Hayashi- who always photographs herself levitating. That’s right, let me say that again – these are SELF-PORTRAITS!
After years of following the Adventures of the Dancing Kids, I guess I’m a sucker for photo essays like this. These also have the added effect of making my heart ache for Tokyo.
The site is called Yowayowa because – in Natsumi’s own words:
“yowayowa is a Japanese term meaning ‘weak’ or ‘feeble.’
Since I’m yowayowa, it’s really heavy to carry SLR cameras around.”
She shares her method of getting these photos – anyone want to take up the gauntlet in another city?
