Beauty and Madness
I always have a camera in my bag. It has been my faithful companion for the past year. I brought my Tomica Dandy Beetle( Made in Japan of course) for this trip and the results were amazing. I was with the right die cast at the right time. I've been wanting to stage a unique photo shoot for some of my die cast and this was a great opportunity when I saw hordes of huge insects in the forest of Narita, Japan. These bugs are huge and I just stuck the Dandy there, shoot some quick photos and ran afterwards.
I hope you guys like the pics! The things i do for die cast..... :) Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteUniquely astounding shots! Yes… it’s Bug Porn (hehe) :-)
ReplyDeleteYou’ve outdone yourself on these photos Brian :-) Coooool!
Thanks Hacken! I know these shots will make some people squirm but this Tomica Dandy is the Beetle King of Narita, Japan.
ReplyDeleteI was actually just looking for some nice generic shots but when I saw these bugs near the entrance of the forest, I just kinda knew this would be a great shot.
I think these bugs are Japanese giant hornets.
Thanks Komenda! yeah, kinda like bug porn hehehe.
ReplyDeleteImagine if my die cast was a Shelby Cobra at that time....
Bug among bugs!! this is really outstanding photo shot Brian!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Daniel! I appreciate your comment. I am still thinking if I should upgrade my camera to a DSLR soon, maybe this Christmas I'll get one for myself.
ReplyDeleteThis is one cool BUG :)
Amazing and Spooky photos! But I like 'em!
ReplyDeleteBTW - the bugs are known as Cicadas, and those are the cast off skins of the young when they turn into an adult - you're probably familiar with the sound the adults make during the summer.
