Kamakura-Minowa
I just returned from our performance at the Fort Worth Botanical Garden. It went very well…
I uploaded this latest Tokyo video to Flickr on Saturday:
I will spend the week working on the narration and preparing to interview Roy Howat and Pierre Jacquard in Paris!

Japan 2009
This is the first video with my Tokyo footage from May/June 2009.
I shoot differently than before. Camera still images that use bokeh, dof experiments and new angles have affected my video shooting style.
I think a new chapter has opened.

Jetlagged, back from Tokyo~!
The Tokyo trip was amazing..the best yet! I saw some old friends and met many new and interesting people. Everyone was so nice and I took so many photos and had many nice evenings.
Kimura-san is the owner of the Hotel New Azuma where I have stayed 4 times. He is an excellent professional photographer who recently returned from shooting in Nepal.
He took over the hostel from his mother, who owned it for more than 50 years through some of the most difficult times in the postwar construction. He will figure heavily in my film.
