Hong Kong on Lucky 400SHD

I feel increasingly unwelcome in Japan. The side comments have got worse in the last couple of years. A guy on the bus just barged past me and then started shouting at me for not moving fast enough. It’s becoming exhausting.

There is a lot of talk about how great Japan is online, but the reality is that it’s pretty lonely most of the time.

Family shots on film. I don’t usually share my photos but I am very fond of these pictures.

Life is funny, yesterday I was feeling down because I couldn’t get tickets for the Leica event in Tokyo. Then I got a message from someone I have only spoken to online in the past who was in Tokyo and had a spare ticket for Oasis. It was brilliant.

I had a wonderful time in HK, it gave me some much needed motivation and time to decompress. I love Japan but it’s sometimes import to get out and see somewhere different. Many thanks to @zdp189.bsky.social for his warm hospitality and sound advice.

Living in Japan and being allergic to both gluten and dairy is really challenging. Some days it can be miserable. So far in Hong Kong I have been able to enjoy so much variety without any worries. Stuff I simply wouldn’t trust in Japan is safe here. Japan needs to get with it.

Good morning from Hong Kong. After a lovely chat with @zdp189.bsky.social about life and our ailments I have decided to share a bit more over here. Hope you are all thriving.

The most nineties camera ever

I sell cameras. I don’t get involved in politics. And yet, lately my social media has been getting T supporter comments, truly vile stuff. Why? Is this how it’s going to be from now on?

We live in troubling times. I have had several people who have been featured on my site ask to have their features removed for fear of backlash by the current US government. It’s a photography website ffs. Be safe everyone.

Excited to finally receive this masterpiece of a shirt, designed by the daughter of a British dude living in Japan, yet shipped for some reason from California just to end up back in Saitama after almost two weeks 😅 @japancamerahunter.bsky.social

Highly recommend Beautifully done @japancamerahunter.bsky.social 🙏🙌👏

This week’s non-manga reading includes Film Camera Zen by Bellamy Hunt @japancamerahunter.bsky.social It’s a good read if you enjoy reading about analogue film cameras. If you think out of print manga is expensive wait until you discover cult film cameras!

I enjoyed this. If you love film and film photography, you’ll likely enjoy it too. Well done @japancamerahunter.bsky.social

Muy chulo el libro de @japancamerahunter.bsky.social que me he regalado a mí mismo :-)
