If you’re from Europe (like me), the word “forest” brings to mind lovely trails, peaceful weekend walks, autumn mushroom picking, or playing in the cool shade during summer. As a kid, we’d drive to a nearby forest, park the car, and just wander around, not really appreciating how much of that landscape had been shaped…
Another chance to test the high ISO capabilities of my little X-T2—this time inside Space Mountain in Tokyo. The low light was really a challenge, but the camera handled it impressively well. Crisp details and minimal noise, even in such tricky conditions. Definitely a fun and successful experiment!
Sandcastle: our masterpiece of the summer—4 floors of pure awesomeness! A blend of creativity, teamwork, and just enough structural integrity to hold it together. Beach days don’t get better than this! 😊🏖️
Far from the hustle of Tokyo, here’s a cozy little family restaurant in Shikoku. It’s a slice of the Japanese countryside that feels frozen in time, with its quiet charm and warm hospitality. I can’t help but wonder how places like this will evolve in 20 years, as rural areas face the challenges of aging…
Kamakura on a bright summer day is pure magic. The sun shines on the historic temples, lush greenery, and sandy beaches, creating a lively yet serene atmosphere. Walking through the quaint streets, exploring hidden shrines, and enjoying the fresh ocean breeze make it a perfect escape from the city. A summer day well spent!
Had a blast with my daughters playing Mario Kart at an arcade in Japan. The excitement of racing each other, the vibrant sounds, and the lively atmosphere made it so much fun. Nothing beats the joy of seeing their competitive spirit come alive on the tracks—it’s family bonding, arcade-style! 😊🎮
Purifying yourself and washing your hands at the entrance of a temple in Kamakura is a simple yet meaningful ritual. Using the wooden ladle, you cleanse your hands and mouth as a sign of respect and to prepare yourself spiritually before entering the sacred grounds. It’s a peaceful moment that connects you to Japan’s rich…
Before heading to work in Roppongi, I captured some bokeh on a Starbucks cup. The blurred background added a nice touch to the morning vibe—simple, cozy, and just enough time to enjoy the moment. Sometimes, it’s the little things!
A colorful sight at Shinjuku Station this morning, with vibrant hues bringing life to the bustling commuter hub. If you’d like to own this moment, the photo is available for purchase on Shutterstock.
Got the chance to drive a brand-new Audi TT-RS, courtesy of Audi Ikebukuro. This little beast is seriously fast—Audi R8 V10 Plus kind of fast—with a 0-100km/h time under 4 seconds. The growl of the 5-cylinder engine perfectly matches its performance, making the whole experience thrilling. Even the kids had a blast riding in it!…
