Kabukichō, 2026

This is the only pic out of the 27 that I really liked. I knew these cameras didn't work well when there's not a lot of light, but I didn't realise just how much light you need. Which in hindsight makes sense because they're like f/11 or something

First time ever using film (other than when I was maybe 10 years old) so it's been surprisingly fun, and I'm seriously tempted to buy a proper film camera now!

Kabukichō, 2026

Made it to Tokyo! Spent a few days getting cooked alive in the Abu Dhabi heat, and now I'm still getting cooked albeit slightly more slowly. This was my first purchase at Donki at 3am (the shop was weirdly full of people). Oh and because this post is a week late I can immediately post the results of the first camera. Spoiler though, the pics weren't good lol

Tokyo

Autumn is weirdly late (and warm) in Tokyo. The ginkgo trees (like this one in Ueno Park in November) turn this beautiful shade of yellow.

I started this page to write about photos but I can't promise the writing'll be any good. Oh yeah and it looks like the Ukrainian flag! Слава Україні!

One of the entrances to Kabukichō in Tokyo during my last trip in November. I made this account so I could write about some of the photos I've taken but I don't really know what to say for this one, I think I was overwhelmed and/or tired when I took it. I haven't played any of the Yakuza games (should I?) but apparently this gate and neighbourhood is featured. Will be back next month!
