Well, not my very first but my first one since I decided to get serious about running a ShootLighter YouTube channel. :) It's just an Unboxing video but it's a start right? Please check it out and let me know what you think. I recorded its with my iPhone 6s Plus, and edited it in iMovie on my iPad Pro. Also, please subscribe if you want to see more of these. Thanks for stopping by today.
Photo of the Day - City Beaches
Today's photo was taken with my iPhone 6s Plus at Naminoue Beach in Naha, Okinawa. It's strange to me to see a beach right in the city with a highway running over it. Thanks for stopping by today.
Photo of the Day - Shintoshin, Naha
Today's photo was taken with my iPhone 6s Plus while walking around in one of my favorite areas in Okinawa, Omoromachi, or Shintoshin as most refer to it.
Photo of the Day - Kimonos in Naha

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everyone from Okinawa, Japan. 2016 is going to be a great year, and I have big plans and goals for ShootLighter.com. First and foremost I'm going to shift my focus on ShootLighter.com to mainly mobile photography and video. I still love my Fuji x-series cameras, but in the past couple years I have found myself using my iPhone more and more for photography other than day to day snapshots. The potential in mobile photography is off the charts, and I love the challenge of creating amazing photos and videos with something that fits in my pocket.
Photo of the Day - Cape Maeda
This is a shot I took with my Fuji x100T a few months ago. It was one of those perfect Okinawa days.
Photo of the Day - Summer Kimonos
Kimonos are one of those parts of Japan that I love. Unfortunately, these days you don't see them as much. However, in the summer Japanese women, and men break out their Yukatas, a lighter, cooler version of the kimono worn during the warmer summer months. I took this photo below at a local festival in Okinawa City. The sun had just set and it was almost dark outside, making this one of those situations where I was glad I had my Fuji 56mm (85mm equivalent) f/1.2 lens on my XPro1. Being able to shoot this at f/2.0 allowed me to get enough light to make the shot.
