Tokyo: Then and Now, Film vs Fuji x100s

Tokyo: Then and Now, Film vs Fuji x100s

In the summer of 1982 I was stationed in Okinawa, Japan, as a U.S. Marine. My unit trained in mainland a couple times per year, giving me the opportunity to visit Tokyo. It was this point in my life that I discovered photography, and purchased my first 35mm SLR camera, a Yashica if I remember right. The city was a never ending playground for photography, and I went through many rolls of film, learning to use my new toy. Looking back now I wish that I had taken more photos.

Quote of the Day

"So many people think cameras and lenses are getting better. They are. But cameras are stupid no matter how "great" they are. They know nothing. They don't come with vision. There isn't a Decisive Moment Indicator light in the viewfinder. There's no Avedon button on the back. The most important piece of gear for a photographer is their brain."

iPhone 6 Plus Pre-Ordered

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge Apple fan. Like millions around the world I never leave home without my iPhone, I would rather leave without my wallet. So the new iPhone 6 Plus will definitely be replacing my iPhone 5s, and finding a home in my pocket, hopefully it still fits with the much larger screen. I stood in line and pre-ordered mine along with all the other uber geeks, and hope to have one of the first ones available. If all goes well stay tuned for a review, especially on the new camera with optical image stabilization. I'll just ignore all the haters out there who love to use the derogatory term "fanboy", because to me Apple still makes some of the best products available today.

Recently my family and I vacation in Tokyo for a few days. If you love street photography Tokyo is complete sensory overload. Everywhere I looked I saw photos.
