Snowboarding in Japan seems to be as much about style as it is about the slopes! For many young women, it’s a chance to show off their color coordination and makeup skills, often more so than their actual snowboarding abilities. The outfits are on point, and even on the coldest days, they manage to look…
I know I’m repeating myself, but in 10–20 years, Tokyo—and Japan as a whole—will look very different with so many small, traditional shops disappearing. These places are more than just businesses; they’re part of the city’s character and history. It’s bittersweet to think about how modernization and changing lifestyles might reshape the streets we know…
Tried the 35mm f/0.95 at night, and the creamy bokeh is absolutely lovely—it handles low light like a dream! That said, it does make me wish even more for an X-T3 with IBIS (in-body image stabilization). Having that extra stability would make this kind of shooting even better. Fingers crossed Fuji delivers soon!
Snapped a few shots on my way to work with the 35mm f/0.95, and I’m loving this lens more and more! The dreamy bokeh, sharp focus, and the way it handles light make every scene look special. It’s quickly becoming my favorite go-to for everyday shooting.
Had to skip breakfast at home this morning because of the yearly (and mandatory) health check. After all that radioactive yogurt and tests, I was starving! Definitely looking forward to making up for it with a proper meal now.
First day with the Mitakon Zhongyi Speedmaster 35mm f/0.95 Mark II on my Fuji X-T2, and I’m seriously impressed! The results are remarkable—it reminds me of my beloved Canon 50mm f/1.2L, but sharper and much easier to focus. That Canon lens produced stunning images but was notoriously tricky to nail focus with. I think it…
A windy day on the beaches of Asnelles in Normandy brings a sense of raw beauty and nostalgia. The waves crash against the shore, and the wind sweeps across the sand, carrying with it the history of this storied coastline. A peaceful yet powerful reminder of the past and the enduring charm of Normandy’s beaches.
Les Braves is a striking war memorial located on the shores of Omaha Beach in the village of Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer, Normandy, France. It honors the American soldiers who lost their lives during the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, in World War II. The sculpture is composed of three symbolic elements: The Wings of Hope, Rise…
A fishing boat braving strong waves as it heads out to sea in Port-en-Bessin. The raw power of the ocean against the determination of the fishermen makes for a dramatic and timeless scene. You’ll have to bear with me for a few posts—I’ve got a lot of photos to share from my winter break back…
Picking up omikuji at the Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Jinja (北口本宮冨士浅間神社), or simply Sengen Jinja, was a serene experience. The soft, golden light of the early afternoon streaming through the trees added a peaceful and almost magical atmosphere to the shrine. A perfect moment to reflect while discovering what the omikuji had in store.
