Randomly, where I happened to be on Sunday morning, was where A bunch of Fatlady Z enthusiasts were having a meet.
Yes FATlady. That wasn't a typo. Back in the 240 days she may have been slender and fair but in her old age she's filled out quite a bit.
That probably explains the immense popularity of the 350Z and 370Z in the States.
Just the briefest glance at any piece of pop culture from The Empire reveals an un-natural love for, overly rotund behinds...
usually being gyrated vigorously at the camera.
No holidays in bali, No shots of my trophy girlfriend's ass to generic house music (Though there are some asses to synth wave), No Lamborghini aventadors (Actually, there is 1), just the mundane reality of my life.
You really want to see me vlog? really? Maybe this will change your mind.
The best Tokyo Auto Salon 2017 on YouTube (Even if I say so myself), Shot in 4K UHD on on the Apple iPhone 7 Plus using Mavis. This is the one you've been waiting for!
It's that time of the year again, and as in years past, Akihabaranews sent me to Makuhari Messe to capture images of Stanced rides and stilletoed companions . Unlike years past however, My camera was off at Sony for repairs and so I was forced to extract as much as I could out of my iPhone 7 Plus. Much to my surprise, for stills, with clever lighting, it churned out some impressive results.
It wasn't as good at video, but using the Mavis app, controlling exposure, and recording at a higher bit-rate did do some to help the video quality. Add motion and some fancy cuts to help people not focus on the noisy shadows and, as it turns out, something halfway decent can be extracted out of Apple's latest Flagship.
It's not going to be replacing my Sony a7S anytime soon. But for the regular folks out there who are far less worried about quality and aren't quite up at the enthusiast photographer level, I don't see any reason to spend money on any camera.

Those of you who follow my Japanese underground instagram account or follow my facebook page will have seen these, and my previous portraits like them. If it's your first time seeing my [driver portraits] series, the basic concept is that all the cool cars are nothing without the people who build their hearts and souls into them. Everyone shoots the cars, which are just secondary representations. The true creativity, beauty, passion and soul of a vehicle is the person behind the wheel.

While I wait for backups before I re-install windows, I thought I'd get three pics I took recently with a 5Dmk4. Despite it's lack of dynamic range, it did hold up to my rather DR heavy custom lightroom preset. These were shot in Akasaka Mitsuke, which at the best of times is nowhere near as interesting as these pictures make it seem.
