I have a backlog of images from the past few years to attend to. I’ve only just got round to working on my images from last year’s Hokkaido tour. We had some of the most favourable conditions to date on any of the tours we’ve done, and this one particular location worked so beautifully. Literally the trees were floating in the air at times, but somehow today, I don’t feel like illustrating that. I much prefer to just show you a slightly mauve sunset shot of my favourite tree in Hokkaido.

I rarely worry about having a backlog of images. I’ve found that I can let images sit around for a year or two before I edit them (I have a very nice portfolio of images from Senja that were taken in 2020, and each time I look at the films I am very excited about what I captured. But I think there needs to be a right time to edit them).

And so this week is Hokkaido week. I also have lots of nice images from Lencois Maranhenses in Brazil to edit too, but they are going to have to wait.
