1000 Cherry Trees in bloom - 赤城山千本桜 (Akagi Senbonzakura.)
1000 Cherry trees on the slopes of Mt. Akagi, overlooking Maebashi city in Gunma, Japan. Once you've experienced Hanami here, the over-hyped Tokyo spots will be put into proper perspective. Not even the glorified storm-water drain in Naka Meguro can come anywhere near the spectacular scale of Akagi Senbonzakura. And as a bonus. It's on one of my favorite high-speed twisty roads in Gunma.
I don't squee often. But two cats sleeping at Hachiko's feet did it. And yes the those really were just a random pair of shoes on the side of the road.

Life is still slow but at least the DARC//SESSIONS have started again. So hopefully that should bring some more interesting days into 7D7M.
You can see the DARC//SESSION Photos here when the editing is done: https://www.instagram.com/darcjp666/ along with other images of Japanese Underground.

My camera is starting to hold me back back (shooting stills at live shows)... I really need think about upgrading... even though I can't afford the upgrade yet.
To be honest, if I want to do keep my car running, buy a appliances for the new apartment, or travel anywhere else in Japan, I won’t be able to afford a new camera for some time... But I can fantasize like I am a real camera YouTuber and I get to play with all the cool toys while pretending that I know what I'm talking about.
Also.. it's more like 4Days7Minutes ?

Winston is back in Japan, and as it happened there was a gig at Shibuya Cyclone, so after a day of catching up, I showed him a slice of my world.
