Hello everyone! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

The weather really is jumping between extremes at the moment! From really hot to rather chilly like today! I hope everyone is taking good care of their heath! (°Д°;≡°Д°;)

Anyway, today I’m  going to be continuing on from last week’s post with Kahotan Post Office! You can find the previous post here: Kahotan Post Office: July 2015 – Part 1.

First and foremost, let me once again give a big thank you to everyone who send in photos! They really are always such a pleasure to look through! The theme this time around was Summer, and I recieved all sorts of different ways of showing Summer through photos! Some people have such amazing imaginations!! (/ω\)

There were so many lovely photos that picking one to use as my Twitter header was rather hard….

However I have decided to use this photo by Tomo-san!☆

*Photo may be slightly edited for use as my Twitter header.。
I managed to get my hands on the lovely Nendoroid More: Swimsuits and decided to try them on Sheryl-san and Ranka-chan for some photos! I placed them by a Morocco Garden fountain with a blue sky for a very Summertime look! I had to be really careful not to get too wet taking these photos, but it was actually a lot of fun to do!

I’ve been waiting for a Summer like this! ♡

A lovely photo of the two Macross F songstresses in summertime mode! I can almost hear Ranka-chan’s voice shouting in excitement! I will enjoy it every time I open up my Twitter, and I’m sure many others will as well! ♪

 

Anyway, let’s take a look at a few more of the Summer photos sent in to me!

Many things are linked with Summer… but this is one photo you often see in a Summer album.

– Gonzales

It is! Whenever you have sand you have to bury someone in it! That’s the rule!! The choice of expression is what really makes this photo lovely! I hope you two enjoyed your Summer beach time! ♪

My second time to go to Japan and I went to Osaka and Kyoto. I brought with me my favorite figures: Shoyo, Mako and Mayoi to do some photoshoots :)

– Randy James

I’m guessing this one was taken in Kyoto! Mayoi-chan’s pose and the lovely gaps of sunlight between the leaves make for a lovely scene!

I also received another photo from Randy James-san that I just had to share! A picture from a certain scene from Universal…!

It’s like the two of them are classmates on a school trip taking a quick photo! They look like they’re having so much fun! I want to go out and try take some similar photos!! ε=(。・д・。)

A picture taken at a seaside station called Shimonada station. This is ‘youth’.

– Yassun

The girls of Afterschool Tea Time looking out to the ocean, contemplating their next big decision in life! The photo has a bit of a wistful feeling to it with all their backs showing… (´□`。)

Homura-chan took the advice of the Yama no Susume girls and came with me up Mount Kinpu!

–  chelseatoshii

Mountain climbing with Nendoroid Homura-chan! Such lovely scenery and she really seems to be enjoying herself!!

I hope to see more mountain climbing photos with Nendoroids! They really seem to enjoy the exercise and outdoors! (。・ω・)ノ゙

Saber say: hey rin dont smoke right here!

Rin say : its feel great you know

Chariot : ……

Another photo making use of the Nendoroid More Swimsuits, to tell a story! All of their expressions are matched by the words above so perfectly!

*:..。o○☆゚・:,。*:..。o○☆*:..。o○☆゚・:,。*:..。o○☆*:..。o○☆゚・:,。*:..。o○☆*:..。o○☆

This was taken this year during Golden Week! It made me want to do more and more outdoor figure photography! (*´▽`*)

– Eien

If this was taken back in May, then it really is a super early Summer photo! As expected of Zegamashi-chan! [灬╹ω╹灬]

The real things like the driftwood and shells add a strange kind of reality to the Nendoroid! ♪

*:..。o○☆゚・:,。*:..。o○☆*:..。o○☆゚・:,。*:..。o○☆*:..。o○☆゚・:,。*:..。o○☆*:..。o○☆

Hakase and Sakamoto-san are trying to hide away from the early Summer heat by taking cover under the hydrangeas… it seems Nendoroids are just like people when it comes to trying to avoid the heat.

– Luka-san

This size of the flowers compared to the Nendoroid makes the two of them look like little garden fairies trying to find some shade! So cute! ♥︎

You could easily transform this photo into a nice image for a calendar!

I hope everyone enjoyed the Summer figure photos as much as I have!

Summer definitely opens up the playing field as a theme – there are so many different possibilities! Another big thank you to everyone who sent in their photos this time around!  But I’m still looking for more! Now that the main hurdle of Summer is about here, there should be all sorts of opportunities for photos!

 

The theme remains as

Summer! (・∀・)
