Resurfacing for air and light…

The start of 2018 was a little rough to say the least. Christmas and New Year’s are just more crappy reminders of what I lost and the lasting impacts of grief. It is funny in a non-comical way how it doesn’t get any easier. Not necessarily harder either. Just complex and hard to read the…

Cura – My choice for photographic cleaning products.

It has always baffled me that people spend thousands of dollars on photographic gear with the best lenses and filters to protect their glass and yet, they cannot keep their lenses clean. No point in pointing a $3,000 camera with a $2,000 lens and a $200 filter at a subject to take that excellent shot…

How I deal with my withdrawals from Japan – Playing with images.

If you have been playing along at home and keeping an eye on my past blogs, you will obviously know that I am obsessed with Japan. What part? All of it! The food, the culture, the architecture, the values, the temples, the tech….all of it! And I have had this obsession, nay addiction, since I…

Dreaming of Kyoto

Well now I have gone and done it! One minute I am in self imposed exile feeling like I will never take a photo again let alone travel, and the next I am dreaming of Kyoto. I last visited Kyoto in 2016 when I travelled between Osaka, Kyoto and Hiroshima. It was an amazing trip…

Taking a little break from it all…

Good morning readers. Hope that everyone is well and safe. For those of you following along at home, you may have noticed that I have not written on my blog for a few weeks. Whilst I would love to be able say that I have been on a mountain in Japan, the truth is I…

2018 – Looking ahead. Reflecting on the past.

First and foremost Happy New Year and welcome to 2018. I hope that everyone has had an enjoyable and relaxing holiday season. I cannot believe it is 2018. When I was a kid growing up in the 70’s and 80’s, anything beyond the year 2000 was freaky to consider. That was THE FUTURE. I even…

Tokyo 2017 – Last Day in Tokyo…this time!

I have thoroughly enjoyed documenting my travel experiences in Tokyo here on my blog. And equally love the comments and discussions that result from fellow bloggers and others that follow me on social media. People that have also been to Japan, Tokyo or specific things like a suburb or an experience. Equally rewarding is hearing…

Tokyo 2017 – My food journey

Hope that you have been enjoying my recent blogs about my travels through Tokyo in August of this year. I thought that I would put together a little blog about what sort of food and meals I enjoyed whilst I was there. I am not a food blogger so don’t expect a review-like read full…

Tokyo 2017 – My Daily Update Home – Part 5 (The rest of the day)

I didn’t get a chance to get a blog out last week. Turned out that my trusty MacBook Pro was feeling quite old and tired and one morning it just wouldn’t start up. And when it finally did it was malfunctioning and doing all sorts of crazy things. I knew this was was coming as…
