CGM Night #6 was held last night at the Shibuya head office of Cospa. The location was perfect and by the time I arrived the room was already full.

These were a popular item. I don't think anyone tried to smuggle one out of the office and carry it back on the train home ^_^.Photo dataCameraCanon PowerShot G10Focal length6mmAperturef/2.8Shutter1/50sISO200Taken2 Dec 2009, 20:13

The room was just the right size for the amount of people. Although it was crowded, it made it very easy to talk with people and just "bump" into them for a chat.

Plenty of chance to swap business cards and chat about projects.Photo dataCameraCanon PowerShot G10Focal length8mmAperturef/3.2Shutter1/20sISO200Taken2 Dec 2009, 20:04

Another great CGM Night with an interesting theme. Thank you Danny, and thank you Cospa. You can see more photos from Steve Nagata at his flickr account here and some great photos from zuco as well.

Check out this great shot by drzuco and more at his flickr account.

Great shot here

After spending so much time talking to people online it is nice to connect with a few of them face to face as well. For all those overseas who can't make it to Japan, maybe we will have organize some events in other cities/countries as well?

    Nice pictures :) And thanks for the strategic finger placement on my business card ^^ Was fun to meet you last night - we should do a blogging collab or something in the future!

    Is it me, or are some of those cosplay boys prettier than the girls? Or are some of those "girls" boys? I'm so confused.
