I could endlessly take pictures of the roofs of temples.

Views on a walk around the hills in Kyoto. A little cheeky with the colours here to make it seem like it’s autumn, when in actual fact everything was quite green—like the last photo.

Taken from a rooftop bar that smartly sells access to their top-notch view of Shibuya Crossing. Had to take photos through somewhat messy glass, but this shot turned out well. I like the vivid yellow and clear shadows.

The foliage was not this brown/red colour, I was cheeky and adjusted the mostly-green boring shot to look like it came straight from Hero.

I think the best part about not reading Japanese is that I can take photos of signs and just appreciate what it looks like without understanding the meaning. This probably says something like “no right turn”, but to me I just think the blue background looks nice in the morning light.

Night photography would be much better if I took photos with people in them. I love the little alleyways and lights, but without a subject they just don’t quite feel as good as they could be.

Immediately after I took that first picture and tried to bring the drone back, the wind picked up and it wasn’t able to make progress at all, even in sport mode. After a few panicked minutes of piloting I managed to get back safely.

Looking upstream somewhere in the middle of Grand Canyon.

You can only have so many photos of things in the sea that are mostly blue, so I decided to go black & white and overexpose to give it a little bit of a dreamy appearance.

While taking photos at a football game I can’t resist the urge to not take pictures of people.

Despite the spectacular cliffs, I found it hard to get a photo that I was happy with due to the harsh light.
