Greetings from Tokyo, Steemit!

Greetings from Tokyo, Steemit!
Hello fellow Steemians, My name is Andrew Curry (@andrewcurryphoto), and I am photographer based out of Tokyo, Japan. For work, I shoot mostly travel, lifestyle, and fashion photography, but my personal work focuses more on the street photography side of things.

I have been living in this beautiful city for about three years now, and I still find myself continually inspired by all that Tokyo, and Japan in general, has to offer, and I highly recommend a visit here if you have not done so yet. And should you find yourself in Japan, please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about what to see, do, eat, or photograph here; I would be happy help in any way I can!

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I am thrilled to have joined this community of like-minded thinkers and doers, and I look forward to discussing all things photography and or Japan with you!

Cheers!
Andrew

I want to experience cherry blossom in Japan but I can't go as of now but hopefully soon. Welcome to steemit and have fun. =)


Awesome shots @andrewcurryphoto. All the best here on steemit! Just dropping by to say hello! This the right place for the talented and passionate artist like you. Welcome aboard!

Many thanks, @invictuz ! I am excited to take part. All the best!

Hi @purepinay, thanks so much! And yes, you should definitely try to come during cherry blossom season. they only last about two weeks total, so with proper timing, and a bit of luck, you will see them!

Hey Andrew awesome photos looking forward for more! Thanks for sharing and welcome to Steemit. I'm new to this as well!

Hello @natedaily , thank you, I'll​ be posting more shortly! Cheers!

Welcome to the community!

Thanks so much! Looking forward to it!

Hello @andrewcurryphoto and welcome to Steemit! These are really beautiful photos and I especially love the one from above with the footprints.

Since there are many travel bloggers and photographers here on Steemit it can be hard to be seen, yet these are also very popular genres so if you stick with creating really great posts and networking regularly (reading and commenting, joining groups, making real friends) you really can do well here. I wish you the best!

Great advice, I definitely see the importance​ of connecting with the community! Thank you!

Thank you, @natureofbeing ! Yeah, I really enjoy that one as well. That was taken from my apartment​ balcony which is on the 5th floor of the building. I was happy that someone with a colorful umbrella fortunately​ passed by!

Killer photos. Welcome aboard. I look forward to seeing more. You should checkout @photocontests and tag some pics with #photofeed

Cheers and thanks for the advice, I will definitely follow and tag some photos!
