Baseball at 8fps
Trying the 8fps mode of the X-T2… twice as slow at the highest possible: 15fps. What would I do with so many shots? :)

Night Temple

Tokyo Tower Panorama
Been a while since I went up there, at the top of Tokyo Tower. Nice shot opportunities of Tokyo, especially at dusk.
Platforms Ghosts
Having fun on JR platforms with an ND filter mounted on the GX-85.
