Goodbye Canon

Goodbye Canon

End of a 15 years era for me: goodbye Canon ! Let’s be honest, I’m not a pro and I’m getting tired of carrying so much weight around. The 5Dmk4 was also a huge disappointment for me: it is lacking some of the basic features I learned to love from my little Panasonic (electronic shutter,…

Audi S4

Audi S4

Another test drive thanks to Audi Ikebukuro: a brand new 2017 Audi S4, and when I say brand new it’s not a figure of speech: it only had 30km on the odometer when they gave me the keys! I used to own the previous generation and this one is even better. Just makes it too…

Sengen Jinja

Heavy snowfall greeted us during our recent visit to the Sengen Jinja—officially known as Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Jinja (北口本宮冨士浅間神社). The snow blanketed the shrine grounds, adding a serene and magical touch to its already majestic atmosphere. The towering trees and traditional architecture looked even more enchanting under the soft, white cover. A truly unforgettable…

Tokyo Tower

Tokyo Tower

The illuminated Tokyo Tower is always a stunning sight but notoriously tricky to shoot, especially when it comes to nailing the white balance.

Subway

In the subway with my Sigma ART 35mm f/1.4—a lens that never disappoints. The wide aperture handles the low light beautifully, creating sharp, detailed shots with creamy bokeh. Even in such a mundane setting, it makes every frame look cinematic and polished. Always a pleasure to shoot with this gem!

Toppan Building

Toppan Building

Micro 4/3 cameras are definitely convenient to carry and simple to use, but when it comes to photo quality, my 5D Mark III still takes the crown. The level of detail, dynamic range, and overall depth it captures—even in something as ordinary as this random building—just outshines the Micro 4/3. Sometimes, the bulkier gear is…

Imperial Palace

Waikiki Beach

Waikiki Beach

Spent our last night in Hawaii on Waikiki Beach, finally getting some rest at the Hilton after an Airbnb nightmare. Despite being top-rated, the place turned out to be filthy, and after four sleepless nights, we gave up and went for comfort. Watching the waves under the stars was a bittersweet way to wrap up…

Took more long exposure shots on the North Shore of Hawaii at sunset. The silky waves and glowing reflections created by the slow shutter perfectly captured the calming rhythm of the ocean meeting the day’s end. Each shot feels like a slice of tranquility frozen in time—a beautiful reminder of Hawaii’s natural charm.
