Random shots found as I wander out and about the environs of Tokyo, just me and my Hipstamatic-equipped iPod Touch. All photos are mine, and none use Instagram-style post-photo filter processing: when I press the shutter, there’s no turning back. It’s a throwback to my very first camera (which got as a gift when I was a child), a Kodak Box Brownie. It was the simplest camera imaginable, a dense Bakelite cube with a fixed lens and heavy mechanical shutter that used 120 film. I loved it.
