Photo – Boats Less Traveled Just prior to grabbing the Man In The Mist shot I took this just to the left. All these boats were almost perfectly aligned up next to the water. only about 30 minutes after this a few people came down and started to put the boats in the lake for the daily fishing to [...]

Photo – Datsun Left To Rot Recently me and Scott left work a few hours early to take a few shots around town. I must have driven past this car at least a thousand times in the past 3 years and never took the time to snap a photo of it until this past Friday. [...]

Photo – Red Bridge Over The Falls This shot was taken only a few feet from my Okutama Waterfall Overpass photo where you can see Scott walking just below the bridge. There was hardly any room for my tripod but I managed to get set up from a relatively good location.

Photo – Sakura Dark After The Light I was crossing over the bridge I do everyday when I couldn’t stop looking at the clouds and sakura and how well they were playing together. Running back for the bridge all I could think about was the clouds and hoping they didn’t already pass me by. I took about 4 different sets of shots and came [...]

Photo – Sunday Drive Over Red Bridge This was taken in the heart of Okutama right next to Scotts Photo Okutama Post Box photo. Prior to getting this car in the shot I attempted to get at least 5 others and couldn’t get one that worked well. looking back I wish I had worked on this photo a little more but I like to [...]

Photo – Okutama Rapid Photoshoot with Scott Today I decided to deviate from the usual of uploading a single photo and try something new. Both of these shots were taken a few minutes apart . I wanted it to look as if I had taken a photo of Scott then him snapping up the one from the ongoing rapids [...]

Photo – Old Bluebird After Scott and I had gone all the way though Okutama we decided to try to find some temples following Scott’s trusty GPS which led us into the middle of nowhere fast. But all didn’t end to badly because we were able to find the Abandoned Wood Mill That I had posted previously. Just on [...]

Photo – Okutama Falls Sometimes you see somewhere you just have to get to no matter how difficult it appears. This was defiantly one of those photos the path was just a short slip away from jagged rocks below but all in all it wasn’t to bad to get out there.

Photo – Okutama Waterfall Overpass Scott had known about this location prior and decided on our way up to Okutama we would stop by and grab a few shots of some Falls. Just getting down from the overpass was a near nightmare which we noticed was only going to get worse as we looked at the junky handmade [...]

Photo – Nippara Cave Grand Hall Nippara is a very wonderful cave that open very largely in the center and I wanted to try to capture that as best as I possibly could. People were constantly going back and forth so I took a longer exposure to make them bleed out in the final product. [...]
