I am also working on putting together something in Tokyo as well. My biggest problem is getting the funds to get to Tokyo, pay for the models, and the services of a hair stylist to in the area to help with the hair, make, and fasion. I’m definitely gearing up for something in Tokyo for both September and October. Whether they will be meets or photoshoots I am not sure.

If it rains, we can do almost everything indoors. No worries!

It’s quite an exciting castle when you get up close. The golden dolphins or Kinshachi are one of the best known items associated with Nagoya Castle.

They are abundant in Japan and often interesting to photograph. Here I was experimenting with different angles and chose a Sepia tone for the final processing.
