update: baby/graduating/graduating

In the past few years I've:

1. Had a baby (now 3 years old!)
2. Got married
3. Graduated from Waseda
4. Started a 3.5 year master's degree (Architecture) at University of Michigan
5. Sold the Hasselblad
6. Bought and sold a few 4x5 setups (Sinar P, Arca Swiss f-line metric)
7. Bought and sold a Leica M3

In the past two weeks I sold all the film equipment and bought a 5d mk ii (I know the mk iii is coming out but I didnt want to spend 3.5k on a body... we'll see) and 2 lenses: 24mm ts-e II L and 85mm f/1.2L II.

Felt sad to let the film stuff go but with baby and life I just didn't have time for it anymore, in the past three years I took about ten photos with the film equipment so I thought it was time to move on.

I am re-uploading my best work and some new stuff to this site: 500px.com/awatanabe if any of you are there.

In the next 2 months I will be graduating! Will probably be moving back to Tokyo for work, excited to be back in the city again...
