April 8th, 2025 - 28 rolls in 18 days across Japan with Leica M7 and Mamiya 7ii. Portra, CineStill, Marix. Jetlagged start, few night shots. Tokyo1 begins—more to come.
Hahah, thanks! I organized them just for the shot, and then I noticed the film brands are all leaning towards the back, showing only bar codes! But I’m kinda proud of the discipline I have to add metadata to all the shots. I’m using a companion app on my phone and I have EXIF data and a reference picture. So I know exactly what’s in each roll of film!!! Then later I sync with EXIF tool and add metadata to all my scans!
Yes!!! I already developed Tokyo 2, 3, 4 and 5 and spoiled 6, 7 and 8! There’s some VERU cool stuff! There was one scene of a Cadillac tail fins with some fun people inside that I am very curious. I believe these are on Tokyo 8! I believe these were the best shots of Tokyo, because it’s in my memory. I hope not to screw up on dev!
As cores me trazem uma nostalgia de um Japão que só conheço através de desenhos e filmes. Muito bom
Thanks for your comment!
Oh, this brings back so many memories of a trip I had to Japan way too long ago. Thank you!
Thanks Yvonne! Welcome to my humble substack world ☺️
Very cool trip. Your canisters are so organised! Mine are always a mess

Been waiting for this. If this is just warming up, I can’t wait for the rest. Great stuff, Raf!
