Renee, how fortunate you are!!

I love the guy, such an interesting personality and way of working. You must have had a lot of fun meeting him.

Have fun in Tokyo if you're still there. I'm overdue for another trip there...

I can't post those photos ;-) lol. Yes, Moody Melon, it was a truly memorable night. At least what I can remember through the haze of Wild Turkey and karaoke

Talk about a photographer with longevity.  I've watched "Arakimentary" I don't know how many times.  Count me jealous over here.
