MY NIKON D70S

May 13, 2009

Some people consider their cerbatanas the Amazon as an extension of themselves and for no reason usually provide. This behavior is highly valued because they contain so much energy as cerbatana (part of himself) and fall into the wrong hands could cause harm to them because they are left without defense. This object which for many is just a hollow tube that throws darts is building as part of their beings. Under this ideal My NikonD70S is that the cerbatana from charge three years ago.

The Nikon D70s is a semiprofesional digital camera that Nikon introduced to the world in 2005. Could precede its immateriality to the rudimentary concept of dark camera  of Aristoteles. Which begins to take shape with the contributions of Niepce and Daguerre in the early nineteenth century. These three began to build the idea of photography. Moreover, since establishing in 1917 the company Nippon Kogaku Kogyo during World War II was a supplier of optical instruments such as periscopes (artifacts) for the Japanese army. One year after the war takes its name from Nikon (Nippon+Kōgaku).

At present, Nikon is one of the leading brands in the market for cameras. Interestingly one of their first attempts to find a place in the market that uses amateur SLR cameras (taking what you see) was the FM10. An analog model with which I learned the basic principles of photography. It is a manual camera, analog and affordable. And although it was designed by another company this model has opened many doors to Nikon and many fans of the brand is an object of collection. Model that I currently like.

With the evolution of the Nikon camera in 1999 draws its first Digital SLR camera: Model D1 and six years later brought to market the Nikon D70s. This arises mainly because of the need to improve the well-known that D70 had left a year earlier. Such was the improvement in some publications such as the Digital Photography come to consider, in many ways, superior to the D100 is more costly professional. This model came to my hands in 2006 as a gift from my father from the need for my passion for photography. Singled in an object that saves the effort of my father and my own passion.

I refer to it as my Nikon D70s for aggregates that share these values (for different reasons) with many amateur and professional photographers. Those who do not see this as our cameras use simple devices, but as extensions of ourselves. Precisely this characteristic that makes us recognize and move socially in areas such as: www.nikonistas.com. Where fans of this model and in general this mark can share their impressions and experiences. This excitement and conditions us to buy some photographic element just think Nikon as the best of all. That was why I recently bought my Nikon Coolpix L18 to hit the market by 2008 and use it as a more compact cerbatana is transported easier. Another small extension of who I am.

TOP 10+3 ANIMES

May 6, 2009

10: X

One day he was looking for other animes I found this by chance. Great find! The story is about the arrival of the end of the world due to the atrocities of man and his fate rests in the decisions of a couple of 15 years called Kamui. Can someone humanity another chance? The answer is in the great final battle between the clans in Dragon del Cielo (Chi no Ryu) and the Dragons of Earth (Ten no Ryu).

What I like is the duality of emotions that make you jump and skip characters in search of the best path without any necessarily a good and bad. Although one of these will lead to the annihilation of mankind, but for the planet. A plot in which each character will have to make great decisions. The original story is CLAMP, manga debut in 1992 and recently in 2001, was adapted to television in 24 episodes.

9: NARUTO

For my brother knew this anime. The main story follows the personal growth and development along the ninja Naruto Uzumaki. A loud and unpredictable ninja boy who saves a great power in it at all costs and who aspires to become Hokage (highest level ninja) to finally be appreciated for their village. The manga was written and illustrated by Masashi Kishimoto in 1999 and adapted to anime in 2002. Then forwarded its sequel Naruto: Shippūden where he and his friends are teenagers.

The story in general is nice because it closely follow the growth and transformation of the characters. Hence the emphasis is placed on the interactions between them and the influence of the environment in their personalities. I like the anime (except what’s interesting is that the ninja world) is the notion of a friend. This and other supplements that you need and has taken a path opposite to yours. Although it is not always your presence and hope of his return.

8: THE PRINCE OF TENNIS (Tenisu not Ōjisama)

I always liked tennis and for me this is the best sports anime. It is the story of a boy of 12 years, Ryoma Echizen, who is very skillful in Tennis. Ryoma’s motivation is to overcome the footsteps of his father, a retired professional player in Japan who could be number 1 in the world but simply not wanted. He who is sent to Ryoma to study at the school Seishun Gakuen (Seigaku) to develop as a tennis player and as a person.

Since the launch attracted me (apart from its picturesque characters), the fraternity that is displayed in a sport that many think is his own. The team work together to overcome the desire of every tennis player makes the confrontations become impressive. Another aspect to highlight is the figure of the teacher. You learn from your partner, friend and especially as the oponente.Tanto manga anime are Konomi Takeshi.

7: LADY OSCAR (Berusaiyu no Bara)

 It is one of the first animes that I enjoyed. Oscar is the story of François, a woman from birth by his father’s decision was raised as a boy to become the guardian of the French kings. This creation written in 1972 by Ikeda Ryoko is set in the France of the eighteenth century. It is based on real characters but the author’s own interpretation. He is a pioneer in the shojo genre, mainly due to address a female audience. In 1980 he became anime and was also adapted as a play.

I love this account as brief history of the French Revolution and how to make each character (every love story) relates to this. Fully integrated by the voice of the narrator which complements and contextualizes the plot. But without a doubt the best thing is to see how this heroine, who will live on both sides of the dramatic social changes that were gestating, get rid of the thorns imposed when born. And even at the end for a short time was able to live and feel like a woman.

6: EVANGELION

Produced in 1995 by Hideaki Ann. It is the only anime in the list that did not have a background as a manga. The story chronicles the efforts of the military by fighting NERVE beings called “Angels” using giant biomechanical robots called EVA which are handled by children. However, nerve hides many secrets that could trigger the destruction of humanity. The key to avoiding or cause the Third Impact (Revelation) is one of the pilots, Shinji Ikaria.

Draws in which the complexity argument is immersed. It has as the series progresses it becomes increasingly confusing and psychological. A little common history which emphasizes human emotions (fears and desires of the characters). In addition, it uses (not literally) various aspects of philosophy and religion that ultimately encerrarte in the mysticism of the plot.

5: BASILISK

I found the original story by the movie Shinobi: Heart Under Blade. The manga was taken to the anime by Gonzo studios. Two ninja clans of Iga and Koga are rivals for over 400 years. The one containing your hatred is a peace treaty and a possible compromise between the successors of the villages (and Gennosuke Obore). However, the shogun broke the peace in order that both groups face and heir who will decide the Tokugawa shogunate.

It is the best anime about ninjas I’ve seen that shows hidden very creative techniques and presents the characters in a natural way. Have a separate point of scenes Kaguerou and Okoi of prisoners who are to be the best time to be sexually suggestive have been in the anime. It also highlights the notion that conflicts of love and hatred we are inheriting and wrapped in a maelstrom of hard to leave. And it is that love can end a confrontation without meaning? In some ways yes. Although the outcome is not necessarily as a standby. An end to Romeo and Juliet.

4: SAMURAI X (Rurouni Kenshin)

The story concerns the life of a vagabond swordsman named Kenshin ( “ken,” sword and “shin”, heart), who was the biggest murderer of the Tokugawa era to the Meiji Restoration, nicknamed Battousai. He decides not to kill in order to pay some form of murders he committed and decides to protect people with his sword blunt. It is based on a historical figure named Kawakami Gensai and broad similarities Miyamoto Musashi named Himura Kenshin.

It is simply a fun anime samurai whose saga is the best of Shishio Makoto. However, the charm of the story is when complemented by Ovas you have and where both the start as the destination of the swordsman. Moreover, unlike the series of these graphics are more realistic and emotionally deeper. Knowing these two extremes gives a lot more than love and it is now so well known. Manga and anime are created by Nobuhiro Watsuki (1994).

3: BLEACH (Burichi)

Do not appreciated at the beginning but now I am a fan of this anime. Created in 2001 by Tite Kubo and taken to the anime in 2004. Is about the adventures of a girl 15 years named Ichigo Kurosaki who has the ability to interact with spirits and thus become a substitute Shinigami to defend mankind from the Hollows with his friends Inoue, Rukya, Sado and Uryu.

Except for some stuffed all sagas are interesting and this is because despite being the protagonist Ichigo the story not only focuses on him. It has a touch of adventure with a touch of mischief since mainly by Inoue, Ruya and without a doubt the lush Matsumoto. Another interesting aspect is how mixed the words from other languages to identify the characters of each underworld. Example: Spanish = Hueco Mundo. I think that is projected to become a classic anime mainly because it presents good battles.

2: SAINT SEIYA (Seinto Seiya)

Since the beginning I have not lost any of its chapters. Also known as The Knights of the Zodiac was created in 1986 by Masami Kuruman. The plot of this series focuses on the story of a group of young fighters called Saints who are struggling to protect the Greek goddess Athena from the forces of evil. Struggling alone with his inner energy (cosmos) and protected by their armor inspired by constellations or beings from Greek mythology.

The number of characters is as infinite as the stars of the universe. That’s why it’s so fun to see how the series progresses, while creating new characters and new villains. The outcomes are complex (one already knows how it will end) but the fun is in finding out new techniques that will have opponents.

1: DRAGON BALL (Doragon Boru)

It’s the best anime! Created by Akira Toriyama. At first the argument focuses on Son Goku, Bulma, and the search of the legendary Dragon Balls, a total of seven devices to be assembled to give the appearance of the sacred dragon that can grant any wish. At various points the series focuses on the Tenkaichi Budokai (World Tournament great martial arts). And from the fight against Piccolo Daimaku the Dragon Balls are in the background and the plot was set in protecting the Earth and the entire universe, through continuous battles against increasingly powerful villains.

Martial arts, friendship and the desire of the basis of the argument in this series. It is definitely a classic for me because I joined a long time. Goku will always be a character who would save a lot of affection. His innocence and goodwill is an example to the point that the end of the series, I am indeed a vacuum in the chest. Thank you Goku!

Thank you to all
Thank you to all

To complete the 10 + 3 I have to give honorable mention to the three animes that came close to entering the list. As number 11 Yu Yu Hakusho (the story of a spiritual detective who tries to catch the most mysterious criminal), the number 12 is the Captain Tsubasa (who could forget the ball that takes half an hour to fall to the ground) and as number 13 Candy (for most it sounds trite I might forget to call her Antony. As the final novel of Mexican Terry).

The five who met in May 1998

“The way to start is to stop dreaming and start doing”.

A.S.

All I know is always started. The blog world is no exception. Some fear not find the ideal item. Such as characters that represent the digital world. Others simply fear that their texts are judged by the mass of cybernauts. Starting at the end becomes an increasingly distant. My case is not that different. I have written several blogs, few exist today. Most have been discarded simply because the subject fell from fashion in my head. That frustration at finding the path has led me to this blog. As simple as writing a diary or journal of a passenger. Should be as simple as writing a blog. 

As we begin this background was the song “Falling Down” I began to remember how I came to know Oasis, my favorite band. It was May 1998, was sitting on a stool next to Pamella, the first girl that I fell in love. That was one of the first times that we talked even though we knew we had a good time. Involved in our timidity told me that my name and my appearance then reminded him of this band. I guess that must have been one of them, the drummer, and I was called. And the haircut I had back then. Whatever was the reason, the fact is that the excitement that came out of his mouth while I had them planted in me the passion that I have today. Their songs were my poetry and 5 became the patota friends who helped me win this blonde obsession. So I began to listen. Unfortunately, things did not work with it but his memory is still alive at the sound of Gallaguer.
