The D3X
Daily Photo – The D3X
An image from one of my first trips (the first?) with the D3X. Not too bad, eh? That camera served me well in creating the fine art series!

Number 9
Daily Photo – Number 9
I thought it’d be fun to go through what turned out to be my top content on social media for the year and that continues today. Mainly I’ll focus on Instagram but I’ll drop in a few others towards the end as when they get traction (e.g. Flickr) the stats go crazy. So, here’s number 9 in my most viewed posts of 2023… does that make them the BEST? Not so sure, but for whatever reason they connected with people, or the algorithm!
(This is one of those images that is always appearing on “free wallpaper” sites… even though I rarely get credit and never really gave permission.)

Before Their Time?
Daily Photo – Before Their Time?
Been thinking back to Google Glass, which was pretty cool, and wondering if it was one of those things that was just the right product at the wrong time… or was it more that we needed products like that to kickstart things and get us to where we need to be by paving the way for others…

The Restaurant That Inspired Tarantino
Daily Photo – The Restaurant That Inspired Tarantino
You may remember this restaurant from the fight scene in Kill Bill with that deadly Japanese girl. It wasn’t filmed here, instead they recreated it, but still it was cool to visit, and the food was fantastic.

Shirakawa-go in the Snow
Daily Photo – Shirakawa-go in the Snow
One of the lovely little houses that I stayed in during my most recent exploration of Japan. My goal on that trip was to head out of the big cities and really get to know the normal day to day life of the wider country and it was an awesome experience.
Wallpaper
Daily Photo – Wallpaper
You know those “free desktop wallpaper” sites? For some reason this image always appears on them, it’s like it is included in the toolkit used to build the sites it is so frequent! I get nothing from it, usually not even credit but hey… people seem to download it regularly and that hopefully means it brightens their day when they see their desktop.
Quirky Fuji
Daily Photo – Quirky Fuji
A version of this photo/location currently sits as my 2nd most viewed image ever on Flickr but this one I quite like too. Something went a bit mad with the sky in this one during processing, but it was a happy accident that I decided I liked. That weirdness works well with the crispness of the lower half of the image, I think.
Tokyo Gothic
Daily Photo – Tokyo Gothic
While leaving Harajuku, I saw this person (I assume person, not creature of the night because they do have that cool look about them) walking toward the action. I still had on my 50mm prime and I wasn’t quite close enough, but they had the right stride, so I took the shot. I cropped in quite heavily in post, and then I ran one of my Lightroom Preset filters on it…
