This trip to Japan has had me in the car a lot. Driving, driving, driving. Especially in Hokkaido, where I had the flu. That was not fun. Two days with a fever and some bronchitis sprinkled on top. I’ve also learned a new meaning of pain. Descending from 36,000 feet in an airplane with congested sinuses.
Anyway, something I saw Patrick La Roque do a while ago was to shoot the city from inside his car with the Fuji X30. The results were awesome and inspiring, so I thought they could provide an interesting perspective on Japan. It turned out to be a pretty fun way to shoot and a great way to pass time while stuck in a car. Thanks, Patrick, for always inspiring.
The cameras I used here are the Fuji X100T, the Fuji XT1 with the 56mm lens, and the Sony A7r with the Zeiss Sonnar. I broke my Fuji X100T the other day, so that the Sony A7r will be my 35mm camera for the next few weeks. But that’s a different story.
