Hello, Tokyo ! It’s good to be back 🌸🚋 The Toden Arakawa (aka Tokyo Sakura Tram) is the last tram line in the city. Along the tram line you can see cherry blossoms and visit a cute tram museum! Just remember the museum is only open on weekends/ holidays 🫶🏻

*Happy Birthday to Ansel’s ‘Monolith’!* 🏞️ “Born” on this day, April 10, 1927. Andrea Stillman’s biography “Looking at Ansel Adams” includes a wonderful chapter all about this storied photograph: “In 1992 I was in Ansel’s workroom selecting images for a prospective book of his photographs when Virginia appeared and announced that she had found a stash of home movies from the late 1920s and 1930S. With anticipation we rented a movie projector to screen them. Miraculously, one reel included footage of the trek to the Diving Board. It showed Ansel in his favorite plus fours, lugging his forty-pound pack, with a rakish fedora hat and the Keds high-top basketball shoes he favored for hiking. “The climbers struggled up…in deep snow, and when they reached the Diving Board they pulled each other up with a ludicrously thin rope. Virginia fearlessly inched out onto the sharply angled granite spur, and when she reached the tip she stood up and blithely waved. It seems appropriate that Ansel presented the very first print of ‘Monolith’ to Virginia. “Ansel was twenty-five years old when he made ‘Monolith.’ At age eighty he was able to recall the experience of making the negative, every detail as clear as it more than a half century had not elapsed. He photographed Half Dome hundreds of times, and there are many different interpretations that include moons, clouds, snow, flowers, leaves, trees, even deer and people. In 1978, during one of his last annual Yosemite workshops, he and his photographic assistant, John Sexton, contemplated Half Dome together and talked about the taking of ‘Monolith’ in 1927. According to John, Ansel laughingly confided, ‘Maybe I should just have stopped then.’” Text, film footage and Ansel Adams images are copyright ©️The Ansel Adams Publishing Rights Trust.

Four key principles to help you understand and select your go-to colors! With @trungbaotr / Research on color and perception consistently shows that colors aren’t just visual, they’re emotional, psychological, and even physical triggers that shape how we feel, think, and behave. 1) Colors affect mood, behavior, and decision-making, often within seconds. Warm colors like red, orange, and yellow are associated with energy, excitement, and passion, but can also trigger urgency or anxiety. Cool colors like blue, green, and purple are more calming, and linked to trust, tranquility, and creativity. 2) Color influences memory and attention. Studies show that colorful visuals are easier to remember than black-and-white ones. In addition, people associate meaning with color unconsciously. Blue with trust, red with danger or romance, green with nature or health, etc. 3) While preferences vary culturally, blue consistently ranks as the world’s most popular favorite color. It’s often associated with trust, calmness, and intelligence, which is why many tech companies and banks use it in their branding. Thus, research links favorite colors to personality traits. For example, green lovers often value balance and peace, while red lovers might be passionate and driven. In addition, preferences shift with age, gender, and life experience, showing that color perception is personal and changes over time. 4) When studies mention that “blue is the world’s favorite color,” they’re referring to mid to cool tones like sky blue, navy, turquoise, cobalt, or ocean blue. Not all blues feel the same. Each shade carries its emotional weight, and that feeling can shift dramatically depending on the colors it’s paired with. Blue next to beige might feel calm and elegant, while the same blue next to orange becomes bold and high-energy - this series by @trungbaotr provides examples in this regard. It’s not just the blue itself—it’s the company it keeps. This idea applies to all colors across the spectrum. @nomadict: What colors feel most like you right now, and how do you think that might shift a year from today? 🎨📸
