tomhakase's photostream
|
I'm a sociologist living and working in Tokyo, Japan.
My flickr stream is a mish-mash of my art photography, snapshots that document my daily life and photographic experiments.
For those who care about equipment, all my photos are taken with either a Canon 5D, Canon 300D (called 'Digital Kiss' in Japan), an old Olympus Pen EE from the 60s, a newer Finepix somethingorother, a Ricoh GR Digital, An Olympus OM-1, the iPhone 3GS or the camera on my other mobile phone.
In addition to photography and research, I co-organise Cafe Scientifique Tokyo. Check out my website for more about my work etc.

Jim Atwood says:
"The photographs of Tom Hope not only tell a story individually, but collectively they take you on an adventure all across Japan. What I particularly like are Tom's street photos that have incredible stories to tell and offer a glimpse into a very fascinating culture. He pays great attention to detail and composition, especially with his black and white photographs. Tom is a professional photographer with an artistic eye as depicted in his Tokyo collection. He is also exceptional at sharing thoughts and information with other photographers which only displays the passion he has with his photography and art. Great work Tom, and I look forward to seeing more photographs from a very talented photographer."

"A fine Englishman with wit and humour... and good eye for photography!
Tomhakase is a smart and kind gentleman, but the enthusiasm for photography drives him crazy when he holds a camera in his hand... he is a fast shooter!
Oh, and I like your cheeky grin when shooting serious shots!"29th October, 2007
