I didn't realise that I'd taken so many pictures on my 3GS but I did. More than 300 of them.
It's not an astonishing number considering how much there is to capture in a city like Tokyo. But it is a little brow-raising when I factor in the 13 rolls of film waiting to be developed, and the fact that I no longer find a lot of charm in digital pictures.
But I like the camera on the iPhone. It produces pictures that ignite a warm, fuzzy feeling in me. It's not the sharpest chap around. Sometimes it's dreamy, sometimes it's hazy about details, sometimes it captures light so beautifully the resultant picture takes your breath away.
So I keep using it.
This is the view from my first hotel room. Stayed there for two nights. I would off all the lights, curl up on the couch by the floor-to-ceiling window, and stare at Tokyo Tower till I felt cushioned by the enigmatic city.

Your hotel room sounds just like the one in Lost in Translation! Sometimes the iPhone is most handy I completely agree. You should buy some camera apps then!
The view was fab. I only truly appreciated the room after I moved to a hostel hotel. Lol.
I have camerabag and camera genius but I hardly use them. Thinking about the tiltshift generator though.
Oh wow, what a view! I can only imagine how beautiful it must've been as the sun fell, and all the brilliant lights came up :)
pity i was never there at that time. i don't think i will have a tokyo hotel room with such a nice view again!
