I was hoping to squeeze one more post in before I go away – but time is running out (again)... I’m off to the US for a photo assignment, and then for another exciting project in Istanbul – can’t wait to see my friends there :) Hopefully I can share some pictures before I go back to Japan in November.
Oh and if you are in NYC, Kelli and Andrew’s first Amai store is opening soon in Gramercy (171 3rd Avenue (between 16th and 17th streets)). They are hoping to launch sometime next week, I’ll be there around that time to take a look and stock up on loads of their gorgeous sweets :)
See you in a few weeks time!

I just wanted to let you know how inspiring your photographs are. When I look at them, there is something raw and simplistic and yet, utterly refined about them that draws me in..it’s delicious art :)

Posted by striggs | 2 October 2007 #Hi Keiko,
Good luck with your new assignments! I wish I was in Istanbul so we could meet and I could be your guide :) Do not come back from Istanbul without seeing Grand Bazaar (a huge place with tons of jewellery shops ;) ) and Hagia Sophia. Oh, you also need to go on a Bosphorus Tour and book a table in the Maiden Tower, too, which is literally in the middle of sea.
Enjoy!

Posted by Joycelyn | 8 October 2007 #As autumn is so late in coming to Britain this year it was lovely to be reminded how beautiful the season can be. It is worth the colder weather. Enjoy whatever weather you encounter on your trips.
Posted by Tamsin wimhurst | 8 October 2007 #you have a beautiful blog, i just discovered it!
Posted by sandra | 8 October 2007 #I don’t always find photography to be particularly inspiring. Pretty yes, but rarely inspiring. You, however,are most assuredly inspiring! Your photos make me feel otherworldly. Amazing! Thank you for sharing…always enjoyed!
Posted by Uncle Beefy | 9 October 2007 #what an amazing photo
Posted by Maninas: Food Matters | 13 October 2007 #Istanbul?!? I am so jealous. I’m so glad that the world has discovered your pictures and is having you go around the world to take more :) It was so good to see you this past week, I only wish we could have had more time. I hope your trip back went well.
Posted by Kelli | 14 October 2007 #What a simple but stunning photo. That red is my favorite color produced in all of nature. Gorgeous treatment of it.
