It was a holiday today in Japan so snapped a few shots while out running some errands around Jiyugaoka…
Today’s Configuration: Leica M9 with a Noctilux 50mm f/.95 with a 1.4x magnifier.

I love the BakeShop in Jiyugaoka…friendly staff, great coffee, and great takeaway food. I am finally eating bagels again!


Sometimes we all need some comfort. Good thing Amazon.com Danbo has 7-Eleven Danbo…





Step it up Jiyugaoka…this will spread like cancer.


I am usually pretty good figuring out what the stickers are trying to say but this one…? Salt Free? Solt Free?

“Salt free” is funny
May be anything from encouragement to eat salt-free food to a conspiracy theory to free up Angelina Jolie’s character in “Salt”

I also ventured into b&w photography recently. Picked up Silver Efex from Nik Software for post-processing my digital shots. I really like tinting b&w shots with blue or sepia. Also got a few rolls of b&w film that I am yet to try on one of my old film cameras. Retro cameras are evil, once one finds its way into your house, just wait, there will be many more
Thanks so much Philippe…Glad you are enjoying ShootTokyo. I look forward to seeing you around.
Hi, just want to congratulate you for what you are achieving here. I discovered your website a few days ago and I really like it. I am returning to it regularly to discover your new contents.
On one side fan of Leica and on the other side having worked for Daiwa Securities at the beginning of my career, you are showing me through these photos what could be technically achieved with these great materials and that without speaking about this soul component present in these pictures and at the same time make me remember Japan.
Thanks a lot
Philippe
P.S. : should your blog become available through a subscription fee basis, I would subscribe to it. Just an idea …
Love your passion for those illegally-parked bikes!
