Out & about yesterday, here in Tokyo. Ten images that I think are pretty cool. youtu.be/Pm9wqLpowRM

More vintage vibes from this Showa-era building in Ebisu. Research indicates the building was probably made in the '90s, but the design screams '60s or '70s. #TokyoGritandGrain #vibe #notfilm #tokyo #showa #groovy

This place is ultra cool and the tile is really interesting and is genuinely hip; I could have shot here for a long while. These edits were made with my "Vintage Warm" preset. I'm HELLA into this look. #vibe #vintage #tokyo #photographer #nikon

Moving to Japan killed my career. There, I said it. I've been wanting to get that off my chest for a long time.

I'm super into vintage style edits. This is totally subjective as to that is, but for me, I like a ton of grain, maybe intense colors, and a few other particulars depending on the scene. I have twelve presets for various scenes. Presets all day and every day and that's how I roll. #Tokyo #Vibe

VIBE SESH! This is one of my all-time favorite images, mostly because I like the composition and because the evening was filled with interesting scenes and moments. 1- after 2-before #vibe #tokyo #preset #Leica #LeicaQ #FTW

I'm all in with my custom presets. Why? VIBE. I'm capturing a mood and a moment with color and grain, etc. Stick with me on this. Let's see what's going on. SLIDE 1 - with preset SLIDE 2 - original LET'S GO! More to come. #TokyoGritandGrain #filmish #vibe #vintage #Leica #Presets

Good evening, from Tokyo! I just wanted to say thank you to so many people for liking and RPing my work. Much appreciated! I feel like Summer is starting to break and we'll be feeling the Autumn vibes real soon. I'm looking forward to photographing all the colors in the parks & such. Let's go!

That dude always hangs out in the corner no matter what 'hood. #TokyoGritandGrain #tokyo #film #believeinfilm #filmphotography #monochrome #35mm

Ikebukuro, Tokyo, is a superb 'hood for black & white film photography. Love me some grime! Check it out! youtu.be/VVzz3P6S8co #YoutTube #film #believeinfilm #filmphotography #tokyo #photographer #Kentmere #Ilford

Prize winning tape in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. The vertical white areas beneath the tape are of unknown substance and seem to be of vital importance. #TokyoGritandGrain #film #believeinfilm #filmphotography #monochrome #bwfilm #bw #tokyo #fixed

Just a photo of a new joint in my 'hood. I think it's cool that they have this wall of lanterns. #Gakugeidaigaku is pretty cool. #Tokyo #NikonZf #Nikon #streetphotography

Vintage W.Komura lens. Absolutely awesome to shoot with. #LeicaM10 #Leica #vintage #vibe #Tokyo

Love Hotel Destruction, my new book, will be arriving soon. Trick. I needed to photograph this place before it gets torn down. A couple years ago, one could go inside and see all sorts of dirty remnants of the joint, which wasn't much. Dust, bricks, trash, wood, etc. #Tokyo #photography #urban

$4k USD 😂

Aaaaand it's gone. I'm always saying that if there's a landmark, cool artwork, some sort of interesting building, photograph it. I walked by here today, and now the building is a horrible brown that makes me want to gag. This art was VERY cool. #Tokyo #photographer #vibe #wallart #streetphotography

Last day for the Tokyo Streets photo exhibition. Swing by! maps.app.goo.gl/AUzTopSH5TA1... #tokyo #streetphotography #film #believeinfilm #photography

Many of the Japanese folks that encounter my work don't seem impressed. Everyone else? They love it. 😏 Showing the tape, rope, and grime isn't becoming of this land? I'm showing film photography. It's "art" more than anything

Grateful to meet Herbie Yamaguchi at the show today. #believeinfilm #filmphotography #staypunk

TAPE. ROPE. HOPE. My current show at Hibiya Okuroji features twelve images on film, showing how tape and rope keep things going and alive in Tokyo. @ilfordphoto.com Reception this Saturday evening! Map: maps.app.goo.gl/gFrwBegRGDSR... #believeinfilm #film #filmphotography #monochrome #tokyo

Well, here it is. It's going to be a great show. Tape, Rope & Hope. All film. All developed by myself at home, etc. Let's go! #BelieveInFilm #film #filmphotography #Droogs #パドレス

This is what I call, "making things so I can make things simple". Today, I hang my work. Images mounted with hooks on the back, so all I need to do is mark the wall, place pins, hang.

Gonna be in Tokyo this coming week? Stop by the reception on Saturday, too! SOUND ON! 😎 #tokyo #streetphotography #beleiveinfilm #exhibition

Last night's photowalk was absolutely stellar. My pal @Hamza and I tooled around Yurakucho and the outskirts of Ginza for a bit. The area in Tokyo really offered up some epic scenes! More, soon! #Tokyo #photography #Leica #LeicaM10 #Voigtlander #40mm

The #night time is the right time. Because I live on the south side (sort of), there are a few neighborhoods that i really like to hit. There's a bit of "old" and a bit of "barely hanging on" but there's a whole lot of "doing great!" as far as businesses go. I like to see #Tokyo thriving. #vibe

Gonna be in #Tokyo the first week of September? Cruise over to my exhibition! #BelieveInFilm #filmphotography #film #monochrome @ilfordphoto.com

This used to be a spot with a bunch of vending machines, BOOZE vending machines! Can we have all that back, plz? #Tokyo #Yurakucho

Visiting Tokyo and stopping off at ASAKUSA? It's called "AH-SOCK-SA", not "AH-SA-KOO-SA". Have a nice day.

Good morning, from Tokyo. It's going to be another hot & humid day. So what does that mean? I get to run errands. On the shortlist is 3M Super 77, the BEST spray mount goo there is. I tried a Japanese spray mount goo a while back and it sucked. 3M Super 77 is better. Have a nice day.

I'm in love with b&w film at the beach. Something about this whole scene, shooting on an overcast day, nobody really around. It was cool. Check it out. youtu.be/b5lZ5aH32k4?... #believeinfilm #bwfilm #monochrome #film #youtube

Be sure to visit Shibuya on your trip to Tokyo. #Tokyo #Shibuya #Tourism #Beautiful #NoTrash

#Bangkok - behind the fence. #Thailand #filmish #photography #photographer

I have an answer, but I want to know what you'd pursue. If you're going to do research on an establishment, what would you do? Go there? Ask the owner what's up? Ask Google? Consult friends? Ask another browser? Chat-GPT?

I entered this empty temple and felt like I should walk to the top and see where the stairs took me. It was strage to know that the only people there were monks and a few workers tending to the place. As I walked up, I felt compelled to just look up at in silence for a few minutes. #Thailand

Many people know I'm into my laundromat photos. Well, Bangkok brought this to a whole different level. This was one of the few that I felt OK capturing. The stand-alone washer with the vinyl wrap? Epic. The scene? Crazy deep area that I probably shouldn't have been in. #bangkok #photographer #nikon

The back side of shiny. Bangkok from a different angle. #thailand #bangkok #photography #photographer #travel

No home, broken, and trash - yet still a smile. Bangkok.

The small child upstairs screamed so intensely this morning ,that I actually thought there was a machine being used to make something - or destroyyyyy something. I have named this small terror, "machina infantilis"

Proper Bangkok diptych, IMO. All this is after a hard day's work. #Thailand #Bangkok

ตุ๊ก ๆ - túk túk action in Bangkok. We decided not to inhale the city from the back of one of these. #bangkok #thailand #tuktuk

A much-needed vacation.

I'm not even a Sony shooter, but watching all the reviews on the new RX1r MIII is highly entertaining. I love coming up with my own rationale for why I wouldn't but it but why I'd buy the A7C MKII instead.
