In this final post about the Japan tip in January 2024 I wrap up my thoughts and feelings about the adventure. What I liked about the place and what I didn’t.

This post is about how I chose to display the images in the upcoming exhibition and the lengths I’ve been to in order to pull it off.
This week consists of two days. the first was a Tutorial and a chat about the exhibition which is due to open in mid-April. Have a look at the reasons why I’ve selected some photos and not others along with the overall theme developing of the show.
This week sees the whol uni still withou tcomputers so it was into the old school colour darkrooms with some negatives. That joined with a tutorial on the Practice module too as prep for the exhibition in April.
Nearly time to go home, one more day to pack in lots of museums and photography, does it work out as planned? You bet it doesn’t.
Time for the third shoot within the factory, and this time it’s after shutdown, when everyone has left for the Christmas break. I find out that I have the factory in my DNA.
Busy day today with two shrines to visit and a couple of high rise viewing platforms. It was a proper touristy day.
Today was going to be the pre-booked trips to teamLab Planets and Tokyo Skytree, plus whatever else I could fit into it.
today was a trip to Hiroshima on the famous Bullet Train. It was a moving experience, both the train and the city of the first atomic bombing.
Day two and it was a packed day in my planning phase, slightly undone by jet lag. I still did a lot with the time I had though.
For my second shoot in the factory I waited for night to fall and then went a wandering with my headlamp and Leica Q2. What did I capture?
The first shoot has been completed and in this post I document my plan and the outcomes. Are any of these images your cup of tea?
Time to hand in the Artist Library assignment, an essay of 1000 words. I chose to write about Frank Miller’s 1986 classic graphic novel, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. Why did I choose this book? Read on…
I used a day holiday from work to go and be an assistant at a photo shoot in the Wolverhampton School Of Art for the Black Country Chamber Of Commerce magazine, Prosper.
