I had to good fortune of visiting the mountains of Nagano back in December. I took a few quick snaps of the onsen monkeys. I didn’t get many keepers, but this one stood out among the batch. #monkeys #nikon #photography #japan #nature #ニコン #日本

I visited one of my favourite local spots with my family. I was went there to grab a photo of Fuji, but as I was in position, the setting sun burst through this tree and I couldn’t resist grabbing a shot. Do you have a favorite local spot? #nature #landscapephotography #sunset #自然 #湘南 #夕焼け #ニコン

I went up to Tokyo for a photo walk a few weeks ago. I finally checked off some locations that have been on my radar for a while. I didn’t get any masterpieces, but the adventure is half the fun. #japan #nihon #nippon #tokyo #photography #日本 #東京

Here’s a summer photos to warm you in the cold of winter. I’m not a huge fan of the season, but it does have its perks! #flowers #japan #sunset #landscapephotography #tokyo #日本 #東京

Some more images from the Daruma burning event. Japan seems to have an endless number of amazing festivals to photograph, I’ll make more of an effort to photograph them moving forward. Have you taken a photo you’re proud of in 2025? #nikon #daruma #日本 #祭り #だるま #japan #photography

One of the best views for a sunset with Mount Fuji. Have you ever had a chance to photograph Japan’s gentle giant? If not, is it on your bucket list? #japan #mountfuji #nikon #sunset #landscape #photography #富士山 #日本

One of my favourite spots overlooking Kyoto. It’s a heck of a workout getting here, but well worth it for the sunset! #japan #nikon #kyoto #sunset #photography #city #日本 #京都 #ニコン

I recently had the pleasure of attending a Daruma burning festival. I was worried I might not get any keepers, but I walked away with quite a few. More to come! Have you ever photographed a local festival? I’d love to hear how it went. #japan #photography #daruma #festival #日本 #だるま #nikon #ニコン

I’m lucky to have such a wonderful view from my house. Even after all these years, I’m still impressed by the beauty of Fuji. #fuji #photography #nikon #mountfuji #japan #sunset #富士山 #日本 #landscape

One of my favourite spots along my photography workshop route. I don’t always shoot on full manual when doing street photography, but shots like this demand it. #streetphotography #photography #nikon #japan #日本 #横浜 #abstract #nightphotography

One of my favorite shots from one of my many trips to Korea. I haven’t been since 2019, so I think I’m due for another visit! #abstract #architecture #photography #korea #seoul #nightphotography

A view that is well worth the hike. It took me about 4 years to check this one off the list, but I’m glad I finally did! #fuji #landscape #japan #mountfuji #photography #富士山 #nikon #sunset

One of my favourite places in a lesser explored prefecture of Japan. Can you guess which prefecture? #japan #shrine #tranquil #photography #landscape #nikon #日本 #japanese

I don’t spent as much time in the city as I should since moving out of Tokyo. While I love how peaceful my area is, I do miss scenes like this. #japan #tokyo #city #photography #nightphotography #architecture #日本 #東京
