Shout out to Anthony Presley (who’s portfolio I’ve just discovered this morning).
He has a really interesting post processing procedure for his Japanese images which, whilst looking unrealistic, is really, really beautiful. It makes them look like something straight out of a cyberpunk genre, such as Akira, Altered Carbon or Ghost in Shell.
All of his socials are here on his website:

Give him a look if you have some time. They’re well worth it.
Japan.
What a country.
I have just returned from spending 2.5 weeks travelling throughout the country to various locations that I have only ever seen in Instagram posts and online travel articles. I particularly chose this time of year to travel as it was peak cherry blossom season. And I was lucky enough to see most locations in full bloom which was truly an amazing experience. Especially when the wind blows through and the cherry blossoms are falling in bulk, making it look like you're in the middle of a blizzard!
Due to the huge amount of photos that I took during my time over there, along with the uniqueness of each location that I visited I will be posting photos and excerpts of my experiences in short posts over the next week or two, location by location. In the meantime though, below are some photos from each day that I was traveling along with where they were taken.
There will be much more to come in the coming days and weeks, so stay tuned!
