In this world, you are either evil or on the side of justice. This is the truth I discovered as a child. Humans are either good or evil, everyone is divided into these two categories.

There are people who need to be eliminated.

Everywhere there are people with no worth. Evil exists because of these people. And as they reach adulthood, they no longer wish to be reformed. There's no choice but to eliminate them.

It's a mysterious thing. The people I passed judgement on were eliminated one by one. Was it coincidence, or was I special? Those things don't matter. Divine punishment was brought down upon evil. If it wasn't, someone would have to pass judgment. It's for this reason that I became a prosecutor. Prosecutors are figures of justice passing judgment on evil, it was my calling in life.

That's what I believed.

And at that time... God descended! God was definitely watching over me. Not only that, he found me worthy of his power.

Sakujo. Sakujo. Sakujo. Sakujo. Sakujo. Sakujo.
Eliminate. Eliminate. Eliminate. Eliminate. Eliminate. Eliminate.

Death Note © 大場つぐみ (Ōba Tsugumi)

I like the atmosphere of this photo from Bonifacio Global City (Philippines). It was raining before we started shooting outdoors, and it left a a cold mist hanging in the air. I love that kind of weather, so I enjoyed myself immensely.

I'm rather proud of the original shot that I took, grainy as it was: [link] (although auto-resized and sharpened by Flickr) I was thinking of submitting this shot unedited but a few things kept me from doing so. The bottom part is really cluttered, so I cropped a little of it out. I like how the focus turned out even with just my kit lens, along with the blue tint from the cold weather that day. But the sky ended up looking so flat and boring, and I wanted more focus on Mikami's intense expression. To solve those problems, I lightened up the face to direct the viewers' eyes toward it. I also added a vignette for added focus on Mikami and to draw attention to that part of the sky, giving a sense of foreboding and implying that God is watching over Mikami Teru. The wicked will be judged and eliminated.

Sakujo. Sakujo. Sakujo. Sakujo.

That's one of my favorite lines from Death Note.

This isn't god's right hand, it is god.

Light. God. Mikami is his right hand. Takada is his voice. Then what does that make Misa?

5 years of following you. And 4 years since this picture was taken .And yet... it is still my favorite photo that you've taken to date. I can't explain why; it just is. I would LOVE to see a tutorial on your processes for photoediting if you're up for it. Especially, if you can do a tutorial on the editing for both this photo and possibly the "Video Game" lighting photos.

You called this Death Note: God's Right Hand, when in fact it is his Left Hand he solves equations with his right hand and writes names with his left. Also with his left hand, he'll take a potato chip. And eat it!!!

The buildings are from Makati ;) at least I think so. They're familiar. I live around that area.
