I travel to Japan a few times a year. I usually bring along a point and shoot camera to snap a few pictures of friends and family. Inspired by TokyoForm and Shoot Tokyo I decided it was time to get a real camera and attempt to capture some of the great stuff I see. I returned with 16 GBs of photos. Here are a few shots that I enjoyed. You can find the full photostream over on flickr.
