The images collected here are excerpts from a series of candid photographs taken throughout my travels and daily life in Japan over the nearly nine years that I lived in the country.
Japan was a place of great excitement and constant visual stimulation for me. I spent much of my time there in an ecstatic state of wonderment with a very heavy shutter finger. I hope some of that magic comes across in these photos.
