T. Enami's Stereoviews of Meiji Japan as Animated GIFs, 1890s-1907
Yokohama photographer T. Enami, born Enami Nobukuni, created these hand-coloured stereoviews of Meiji-era Japan from roughly the 1890s through 1907. Each stereoview used two photographs taken from slightly different positions to produce an illusion of depth when viewed through a stereoscope. The 20 paired views were converted into animated GIFs in October 2009, alternating between the two exposures to recreate a three-dimensional effect. The scenes include sumo wrestlers, geisha, a Buddhist ornament shop, firewood dealers with packhorses, the Kamakura Daibutsu, torii gates at Fushimi Inari in Kyoto, a traveller near Chuzenji, clam diggers, a campfire on Mount Myogi and a priest with a procession. One view shows a Ferris wheel at the 1907 Tokyo Industrial Exposition in Ueno Park.                     |

Japan is very interesting indeed! Went last year and visited many places, Okinawa, Kyoto, Hiroshima (met & recorded the last documented remaining survivor of the bombing), Toyko (of course) and many of the other areas.... Wish we had those damn fast bullet trains!!! |

If you get the chance JUMP on that shit, Japan is fucking awesome! I lived there for 3 years on and off the NAF Atsugi Naval base. I lived there when 9/11 happened and shit got tense as fuck. They turned that base into a fortress, bringing in the Army from the nearby Camp Zama Army base and all their tanks, APC's, and even a machine gun nest at the front gate.  Special Forces patrolled the ENTIRE base with big ass guns, while the Japan Self-Defense Forces still were not allowed to have guns, so they used wooden ones.... It was fucking great, ill remember it for the rest of my life,especially Mt. Fugi I want to go back so bad.  |
