Our Game Center Ritual (Experimenting with the Prisma App for iOS)

in #japan6 years ago (edited)

It’s been a gloomy week here in Niigata, Japan.

The weather is not cold enough for snow, but cold enough for chilling rain, and remains pretty much overcast this time of year. It’s easy to feel lethargic and also get a bit of cabin fever. As such, I decided to take my son out to the nearby game center for some crane/shovel games and hot pizza. This is something we like to do now and then, and which has become a bit of a father/son ritual for us, on days when I have to go to work, but have a couple hours free beforehand. It’s always good to have a bit of a “boys’ day” and shoot the breeze.

I used filters from the Prisma app for iOS to give the following photos the kind of feel I felt they deserved.

Enjoy!

He worked hard for this “golden coin” (chocolate) and wouldn’t give up until he got it.

Whoa! What an amazing app buddy, those pictures are really cool.
Your little fella looks proud of the gold coin, have you put a real one in his hands to see the reaction? Kids are smart they just instinctively know that gold is something special.

Yeah! He’s held a gold coin before. They do know. Pretty neat.

Haha friend like father like son. Yes your son will be a hero in this world one day. He is lucky enough to have a very telanted father like you. Happy to see you enjoying your time with your beloved partner. Have a great time friend happy steeming.

Haha, yes! All about those gold coins!

Thank you for the kind words, @maya7.

This app looks great to me. Son is on a dad, he's just interested in coins :)

Haha. Like father, like son ;)

It looks very marketable almost on the old comic book theme (that has converted to real life) many of us miss. I think I will try it... thanks for the find and example.
Ha just used it, wow this is not only fun but very useful for blogs and internet marketing... thanks!

Hadn’t thought of internet marketing, but very true! Glad to hear it!

Good pictures taken, bro

it great you are spending time with your son, he will grow up well to be like his father, and gaming is good to help in the bonding act

Really enjoy the filters on the first and third pictures. Think those filters really fit the arcade style/feel.

Thanks, @gniksivart. I thought so too!

That is a very artsy app. :)

Keep enjoying your son's company together with pretty weather of Niagara city...

Prisma app is giving a nice effect to the photos..
Enjoy the cool weather of Niigata.. with your cute partner with curls... ☺.

:) Thanks! Have a great day, @momi5!

Good day to you too..
